Subject: [Linux-ia64] kernel bug in mmap
Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2001 00:05:56 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <marc-linux-ia64-105590698805108@msgid-missing> (raw)

Hi,
  Attempts to mmap an empty file result in the file being left busy,
such that the file system cannot be unmounted.  Fix below.

Richard
