Subject: [PATCH v4 06/21] mm/vma: remove superfluous map->hold_file_rmap_lock
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 22:39:32 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <42c3fbb701e361a17193ecda0d2dabcc326288a5.1774045440.git.ljs@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1774045440.git.ljs@kernel.org>
We don't need to reference this field, it's confusing as it duplicates
mmap_action->hide_from_rmap_until_complete, so thread the mmap_action
through to __mmap_new_vma() instead and use the same field consistently.
