Subject: [patch 142/158] mm/mmap.c: make vma_merge() comment more easy to understand
Date: Sat, 30 Nov 2019 17:57:39 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191201015739.gU8SfaYW2%akpm@linux-foundation.org> (raw)

From: Wei Yang <richardw.yang@linux.intel.com>
Subject: mm/mmap.c: make vma_merge() comment more easy to understand

Case 1/6, 2/7 and 3/8 have the same pattern and we handle them in the
same logic.

Rearrange the comment to make it a little easy for audience to
understand.
