Subject: [PATCH] mm/rmap.c: remove useless checking to child vma->vm_prev in anon_vma_clone
Date: Mon,  6 Jan 2020 06:37:59 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1578292679-2592-1-git-send-email-lixinhai.lxh@gmail.com> (raw)

For fork case, the dst->vm_prev is always same as src->vm_prev when
anon_vma_clone() is called. Removing the assignment from
dst->vm_prev->anon_vma to dst->anon_vma, and explictly assign from
anon_vma which is shared by its parent vmas.
