The patch titled Subject: mm/mmap.c: use IS_ERR_VALUE to check return value of get_unmapped_area has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-mmapc-use-is_err_value-to-check-return-value-of-get_unmapped_area.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Gaowei Pu <pugaowei@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/mmap.c: use IS_ERR_VALUE to check return value of get_unmapped_area get_unmapped_area() returns an address or -errno on failure. Historically we have checked for the failure by offset_in_page() which is correct but quite hard to read. Newer code started using IS_ERR_VALUE which is much easier to read. Convert remaining users of offset_in_page as well.
