Subject: mempolicy: remove the "task" arg of vma_policy_mof() and simplify it
X-Git-Tag: fixes-against-v3.18-rc2~137^2~73
X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6b6482bbf64ef6f6dbc8b52f7a7cf88a0498bd51;p=pandora-kernel.git

mempolicy: remove the "task" arg of vma_policy_mof() and simplify it

1. vma_policy_mof(task) is simply not safe unless task == current,
   it can race with do_exit()->mpol_put(). Remove this arg and update
   its single caller.

2. vma can not be NULL, remove this check and simplify the code.
