[PATCH v3 3/9] mm/rmap: skip unfaulted VMAs on anon_vma clone, unlink
Posted by Lorenzo Stoakes 3 weeks ago
For both anon_vma_clone() and unlink_anon_vmas(), if the source VMA or the
VMA to be linked are unfaulted (e.g.  !vma->anon_vma), then the functions
do nothing.  Simply exit early in these cases.

In the unlink_anon_vmas() case we can also remove a conditional that
checks whether vma->anon_vma is set.
