Subject: [PATCH 2/8] mm/rmap: skip unfaulted VMAs on anon_vma clone, unlink
Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2025 12:27:04 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <b2b22973f761a97751487144f7726bb0cf868305.1765970117.git.lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1765970117.git.lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com>

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.
