From: "Liam R. Howlett" <Liam.Howlett@Oracle.com>
vma_to_resize() is used in two locations to find and validate the vma
for the mremap location. One of the two locations already has the vma,
which is then re-found to validate the same vma.
This code can be simplified by moving the vma_lookup() from
vma_to_resize() to mremap_to() and changing the return type to an int
error.
Since the function now just validates the vma, the function is renamed
to mremap_vma_check() to better reflect what it is doing.

The original function is vma_to_resize, and mremap_vma_check is
missing this context.
Maybe mremap_vma_check_resize is a better name ?

Good point. That suggestion is long though. Perhaps vma_check_resize(), since this is a static function in the mremap.c file, it is fine to drop mremap from the name. ... Thanks, Liam

Any function with "check" in the name makes my teeth ache. "check" what? And the name doesn't carry any connotation of the return value's meaning. eg, "check_the_cheese()" versus "cheese_is_fresh()". The latter name tells you what is being checked and it tells you what a "true" return value means. Also, the dang function isn't documented. Also, why is mremap_to() calling mremap_vma_check() without testing its return value? mremap_vma_check() doesn't actually alter anything, does it? If it does then it's misnamed.

Although I do prefer cheese_is_fresh().
