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 resize_is_valid() to better reflect what it is doing.
This commit also adds documentation about the function.

Small nit: Could we pick a stable naming scheme? I understand the kernel has historically had plenty of ways to name functions, including do_stuff is_stuff stuff_do stuff_is I thought we were starting to converge into vma_/vmi_/vms_ :( I would personally prefer vma_resize_is_valid/vma_resize_valid (even if it's a static function, so it doesn't matter _too_ much).

Right. Usually the vma_/vmi_/vms_ stuff indicates the first argument to the functions exposed to other files. Yes, vma_ would work here, and I don't really mind that it's static and has the vma_ name. I'd suggest relocating it to vma.c or vma.h, but then we'd have to put mremap in the name and that would be rather long - I don't think we do anything like this elsewhere. > > > > > This commit also adds documentation about the function. > > > > Signed-off-by: Liam R.

I'll look into those if I find some time. Agreed. If you do get to doing more clean up, I'd be fine with a rename of this function. Regards, Liam

git-icdiff helped here a lot :)

Generally a really nice clean up in any case, thanks for doing this!
