Tejun Heo 18be460eeb mm/hmm.c: remove superfluous RCU protection around radix tree lookup
hmm_devmem_find() requires rcu_read_lock_held() but there's nothing which
actually uses the RCU protection.  The only caller is
hmm_devmem_pages_create() which already grabs the mutex and does
superfluous rcu_read_lock/unlock() around the function.

This doesn't add anything and just adds to confusion.  Remove the RCU
protection and open-code the radix tree lookup.  If this needs to become
more sophisticated in the future, let's add them back when necessary.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

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.
