[PATCH] mm/mmap: Fix vma_merge() offset when expanding the next vma
Posted by Liam R. Howlett 2 years, 7 months ago 
The vm_pgoff was being set incorrectly when expanding the next VMA to a
lower address.  Fix the issue by using the mid->vm_pgoff value for this
merge case (aka case 8).  Note that this does not change case 3's
vm_pgoff as next and mid are the same VMA.

Ah, right, upstream was not affected ... :)

... so this should be squashed into that commit instead as long as it 
doesn't have a stable ID.

Yup, I queued this as mm-mmap-remove-__vma_adjust-fix.patch so it's
to-be-squished.

Generally, please let's tell people when a patch fixes something which
is staged in mm-unstable - to save a few brain cycles and to hopefully
improve review.  A Fixes: with no SHA works, or simply "this fixes X".
