remap_file_pages() broken in 2.6.23?

From: Chuck Ebbert
Date: Thu Nov 29 2007 - 14:45:55 EST


Original report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=404201

The test case below, taken from the LTP test code, prints -1 (as
expected) on 2.6.22 and 0 on 2.6.23. It tries to remap an out-of-range
page. Proposed patch follows the program. Bug was apparently caused by
commit 54cb8821de07f2ffcd28c380ce9b93d5784b40d7.
