[PATCH] mm/fremap.c: fix another oops on error path

From: Ming Lei
Date: Sat Mar 16 2013 - 11:24:33 EST


Since find_vma() may return NULL, so don't dereference the
returned 'vma' until it is valid.

The problem is introduced by the commit in linus tree:

6d7825b(mm/fremap.c: fix oops on error path).

Also mark vm_flags as ninitialized_var() to avoid compile
warning.
