6.5-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Liam R. Howlett <Liam.Howlett@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 51f625377561e5b167da2db5aafb7ee268f691c5 upstream. The two users of mbind_range() are expecting that mbind_range() will update the pointer to the previous VMA, or return an error. However, set_mempolicy_home_node() does not call mbind_range() if there is no VMA policy. The fix is to update the pointer to the previous VMA prior to continuing iterating the VMAs when there is no policy. Users may experience a WARN_ON() during VMA policy updates when updating a range of VMAs on the home node.
