I got lost when trying to track down the provenience of this buffer.

The caller that I found when I was looking at this: drivers/gpu/drm/exynos/exynos_drm_g2d.c:482 exynos_g2d_set_cmdlist_ioctl()->g2d_map_cmdlist_gem()->g2d_userptr_get_dma_addr()->get_vaddr_frames() > > -- > Catalin

This patch is a part of a series that extends arm64 kernel ABI to allow to pass tagged user pointers (with the top byte set to something else other than 0x00) as syscall arguments. get_vaddr_frames uses provided user pointers for vma lookups, which can only by done with untagged pointers. Instead of locating and changing all callers of this function, perform untagging in it.
