The patch titled Subject: mremap: don't do uneccesary checks if new_len == old_len has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mremap-dont-do-uneccesary-checks-if-new_len-==-old_len.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mremap: don't do uneccesary checks if new_len == old_len The "new_len > old_len" branch in vma_to_resize() looks very confusing. It only covers the VM_DONTEXPAND/pgoff checks but everything below is equally unneeded if new_len == old_len. Change this code to return if "new_len == old_len", new_len < old_len is not possible, otherwise the code below is wrong anyway.
