mm: Fix access_remote_vm() regression on tagged addresses
GDB uses /proc/PID/mem to access memory of the target process. GDB doesn't untag addresses manually, but relies on kernel to do the right thing. mem_rw() of procfs uses access_remote_vm() to get data from the target process. It worked fine until recent changes in __access_remote_vm() that now checks if there's VMA at target address using raw address. Untag the address before looking up the VMA. Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov <kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com> Reported-by: Christina Schimpe <christina.schimpe@intel.com> Fixes: eee9c708cc89 ("gup: avoid stack expansion warning for known-good case") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
