Subject: mm/util.c: add warning if __vm_enough_memory fails
Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2022 22:54:28 +0800
If a process has not enough memory to allocate a new virtual mapping, we
may meet verious kinds of error, eg, fork cannot allocate memory, SIGBUS
error in shmem, but it is difficult to confirm them, let's add some debug
information to easily to check this scenario if __vm_enough_memory fails.
