Subject: [PATCH] mm/msync: exit early when the flags is an MS_ASYNC and start < vm_start
Date: Mon, 12 Oct 2020 19:09:12 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201012160911.6282-1-sh1r4s3@mail.si-head.nl> (raw)

Exit from the loop over the VMA in the case when the flags
contain only an MS_ASYNC and start < vm_start. In this case msync()
would return with -ENOMEM anyway so make it return early.
