[PATCH v1 2/9] mm/mmap: Abstract vma clean up from exit_mmap()
Posted by Liam R. Howlett 3 weeks, 2 days ago
Create the new function tear_down_vmas() to remove a range of vmas.
exit_mmap() will be removing all the vmas.

This is necessary for future patches.

No functional changes intended.

I would just do a VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() here.

By not checking for XA_ZERO_ENTRY, we're technically breaking bisectability
here.

In any case,

nit: Maybe let the compiler decide whether to inline this one?
