Properly use masked_user_read_access_begin() and masked_user_write_access_begin() instead of masked_user_access_begin() in order to match user_read_access_end() and user_write_access_end(). This is important for architectures like PowerPC that enable separately user reads and user writes. That means masked_user_read_access_begin() is used when user memory is exclusively read during the window and masked_user_write_access_begin() is used when user memory is exclusively writen during the window. masked_user_access_begin() remains and is used when both reads and writes are performed during the open window. Each of them is expected to be terminated by the matching user_read_access_end(), user_write_access_end() and user_access_end().

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 reStructuredText 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.
