Deprecate kmap() in favor of kmap_local_page() due to high cost, restricted mapping space, the overhead of a global lock for synchronization, and making the process sleep in the absence of free slots. kmap_local_page() offers thread-local and CPU-local mappings, take pagefaults in a local kmap region and preserves preemption by saving the mappings of outgoing task and restoring those of the incoming one during a context switch. It is faster than kmap(), and in functions "dmirror_do_read" and "dmirror_do_write" the mappings are kept local to the thread. Therefore, replace kmap/mem*()/kunmap pattern with memcpy_to/from_page() and remove the unused variable "tmp". Signed-off-by: Sumitra Sharma <sumitraartsy@gmail.com> --- Suggested-by: Fabio M.
