From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm-mmapc-replace-find_vma_prepare-with-clearer-find_vma_links fix
Strangely, I can no longer get an uninitialized variable warning out of
copy_vma(), with or without the BUG() there; but David Rientjes gets it
when he builds with CONFIG_BUG off, which is understandable.
uninitialized_var() can be a useful tool, but I do prefer to avoid it:
partly because it might hide future errors, partly because I misspell it,
but mainly because the need for it comes and goes so mysteriously.
Given David's preference for no warning, mine for no uninitialized_var,
and Linus's for renaming BUG() to I_AM_A_MORON() to discourage its use in
the first place: copy_vma() seems a prime candidate for returning failure
to mremap instead of crashing the system.
