I can move the WARN_ON_ONCE() check into the va_clip(). So it makes sense.

As for a return value, we should check it, at least here:

		ret = va_clip(&free_vmap_area_root,
			&free_vmap_area_list, va, start, size);
		if (WARN_ON_ONCE(unlikely(ret)))
			/* It is a BUG(), but trigger recovery instead. */
			goto recovery;



i t can fail, though it rather goes toward almost zero%.

Thank you for looking at it, Liam!
