Subject: mm_for_maps: shift down_read(mmap_sem) to the caller
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=00f89d218523b9bf6b522349c039d5ac80aa536d;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

mm_for_maps: shift down_read(mmap_sem) to the caller

mm_for_maps() takes ->mmap_sem after security checks, this looks
strange and obfuscates the locking rules. Move this lock to its
single caller, m_start().
