From 605d9288b3e8a3d15e6f36185c2fc737b6979572 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hugh Dickins Date: Sat, 16 Aug 2008 11:07:21 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mm: VM_flags comment fixes Try to comment away a little of the confusion between mm's vm_area_struct vm_flags and vmalloc's vm_struct flags: based on an idea by Ulrich Drepper.
