[RFC PATCH v2 1/4] [PATCH 1/4] mm: refactor of vma_merge()

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

 



Refactor vma_merge() to make it shorter, more understandable and
suitable for tracing of successful merges that are made possible by
following patches in the series. Main change is the elimination of code
duplicity in the case of merge next check. This is done by first doing
checks and caching the results before executing the merge itself. Exit
paths are also unified.
