Its name comes from former probe_user_read() function. That function is now called copy_from_user_nofault(). probe_user_read_inst() uses copy_from_user_nofault() to read only a few bytes. It is suboptimal. It does the same as get_user_inst() but in addition disables page faults. But on the other hand, it is not used for the time being. So remove it for now. If one day it is really needed, we can give it a new name more in line with today's naming, and implement it using get_user_inst() Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/5f6f82572242a59bfee1e19a71194d8f7ef5fca4.1618405715.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu |

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.
