From 86a76331d94c4cfa72fe1831dbe4b492f66fdb81 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: WANG Wenhu Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2020 21:09:03 -0700 Subject: mm: clarify a confusing comment for remap_pfn_range() It really made me scratch my head. Replace the comment with an accurate and consistent description. The parameter pfn actually refers to the page frame number which is right-shifted by PAGE_SHIFT from the physical address.
