gmap_mprotect_notify() refuses shadow gmaps. Turns out that a) gmap_protect_range() b) gmap_read_table() c) gmap_pte_op_walk() Are never called for gmap shadows. And never should be. This dates back to gmap shadow prototypes where we allowed to call mprotect_notify() on the gmap shadow (to get notified about the prefix pages getting removed). This is avoided by always getting notified about any change on the gmap shadow. The only real function for walking page tables on shadow gmaps is gmap_table_walk(). So, essentially, these functions should never get called and gmap_pte_op_walk() can be cleaned up. Add some checks to callers of gmap_pte_op_walk().

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
