Commit Message

Peter Xu April 12, 2023, 4:38 p.m. UTC 
  This is a proposal to revert commit 914eedcb9ba0ff53c33808.

I found this when writting a simple UFFDIO_API test to be the first unit
test in this set.  Two things breaks with the commit:

  - UFFDIO_API check was lost and missing.  According to man page, the
  kernel should reject ioctl(UFFDIO_API) if uffdio_api.api != 0xaa.  This
  check is needed if the api version will be extended in the future, or
  user app won't be able to identify which is a new kernel.

  - Feature flags checks were removed, which means UFFDIO_API with a
  feature that does not exist will also succeed.  According to the man
  page, we should (and it makes sense) to reject ioctl(UFFDIO_API) if
  unknown features passed in.
