[PATCH 1/7] uprobes: Move alloc_page() from xol_add_vma() toxol_alloc_area()

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Mon Dec 31 2012 - 12:53:37 EST


Move alloc_page() from xol_add_vma() to xol_alloc_area() to cleanup
the code. This separates the memory allocations and consolidates the
-EALREADY cleanups and the error handling.
