Series mm/highmem: Preemptible variant of kmap_atomic & friends | expand

Commit Message

Thomas Gleixner Nov. 3, 2020, 9:27 a.m. UTC
Replace kmap_atomic_pfn() with kmap_local_pfn() which is preemptible and
can take page faults.

Remove the indirection of the dump page and the related cruft which is not
longer required.
