The patch titled
Subject: mm/mmap.c: logic of find_vma_intersection repeated in __do_munmap
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-mmapc-logic-of-find_vma_intersection-repeated-in-__do_munmap.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Gonzalo Matias Juarez Tello <gmjuareztello@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/mmap.c: logic of find_vma_intersection repeated in __do_munmap
Logic of find_vma_intersection() is repeated in __do_munmap().
Also, prev is assigned a value before checking vma->vm_start >= end which
might end up on a return statement making that assignment useless.
Calling find_vma_intersection() checks that condition and returns NULL if
no vma is found, hence only the !vma check is needed in __do_munmap().
