[PATCH v3 tip/perf/core 3/4] uprobes: simplify find_active_uprobe_rcu() VMA checks
Posted by Andrii Nakryiko 1 month, 2 weeks ago
At the point where find_active_uprobe_rcu() is used we know that VMA in
question has triggered software breakpoint, so we don't need to validate
vma->vm_flags. Keep only vma->vm_file NULL check.
