[PATCH] mm/rmap.c: remove useless checking to child vma->vm_prev in anon_vma_clone

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For fork case, the dst->vm_prev is always same as src->vm_prev when
anon_vma_clone() is called. Removing the assignment from
dst->vm_prev->anon_vma to dst->anon_vma, and explictly assign from
anon_vma which is shared by its parent vmas.
