The patch titled Subject: mm: make sure all file VMAs have ->vm_ops set has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-make-sure-all-file-vmas-have-vm_ops-set.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: make sure all file VMAs have ->vm_ops set We rely on vma->vm_ops == NULL to detect anonymous VMA: see vma_is_anonymous(), but some drivers doesn't set ->vm_ops. As a result we can end up with anonymous page in private file mapping. That should not lead to serious misbehaviour, but nevertheless is wrong. Let's fix by setting up dummy ->vm_ops for file mmapping if f_op->mmap() didn't set its own. The patch also adds sanity check into __vma_link_rb(). It will help catch broken VMAs which inserted directly into mm_struct via insert_vm_struct(). Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
