From 2aeadc30de45a72648f271603203ab392b80f607 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrea Arcangeli Date: Wed, 22 Sep 2010 13:05:12 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mmap: call unlink_anon_vmas() in __split_vma() in case of error If __split_vma fails because of an out of memory condition the anon_vma_chain isn't teardown and freed potentially leading to rmap walks accessing freed vma information plus there's a memleak.
