[patch 17/94] vmalloc.c: fix flushing in vmap_page_range()

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu Jan 15 2009 - 15:10:45 EST


2.6.28-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Adam Lackorzynski <adam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 2e4e27c7d082b2198b63041310609d7191185a9d upstream.

The flush_cache_vmap in vmap_page_range() is called with the end of the
range twice. The following patch fixes this for me.
