From: "Liam R. Howlett" <Liam.Howlett@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/mmap: add inline vma_next() for readability of mmap code There are three places that the next vma is required which uses the same block of code. Replace the block with a function and add comments on what happens in the case where NULL is encountered.
