Subject: [PATCH 4/7] uprobes: do not use -EEXIST in install_breakpoint() paths
Date: Wed, 8 Aug 2012 19:37:44 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120808173744.GA13269@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120808173659.GA13220@redhat.com>

-EEXIST from install_breakpoint() no longer makes sense, all
callers should simply treat it as "success". Change the code
to return zero and simplify register_for_each_vma().
