From: "Liam R. Howlett" <Liam.Howlett@xxxxxxxxxx> There have been no reported infinite loops in the tree, but checking the detection of an infinite loop during validation is simple enough. Add the detection to the validate_mm() function so that error reports are clear and don't just report stalls. This does not protect against internal maple tree issues, but it does detect too many vmas being returned from the tree. Signed-off-by: Liam R.
