Subject: mm/mmap.c: fix missing call to vm_unacct_memory in mmap_region
Date: Sat, 18 Jun 2022 16:20:27 +0800

Since the beginning, charged is set to 0 to avoid calling vm_unacct_memory
twice because vm_unacct_memory will be called by above unmap_region.  But
since commit 4f74d2c8e827 ("vm: remove 'nr_accounted' calculations from
the unmap_vmas() interfaces"), unmap_region doesn't call vm_unacct_memory
anymore.  So charged shouldn't be set to 0 now otherwise the calling to
paired vm_unacct_memory will be missed and leads to imbalanced account.
