Wei Yang d4faa40259 mm: remove unnecessary local variable addr in __get_user_pages_fast()
The local variable `addr' in __get_user_pages_fast() is just a shadow of
`start'.  Since `start' never changes after assignment to `addr', it is
fine to replace `start' with it.

Also the meaning of [start, end] is more obvious than [addr, end] when
passed to gup_pgd_range().

README

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.

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.
