[PATCH] mm: vmalloc: don't remove inexistent guard hole in remove_vm_area()

From: Jerome Marchand
Date: Thu Nov 12 2015 - 10:17:13 EST


Commit 71394fe50146 ("mm: vmalloc: add flag preventing guard hole
allocation") missed a spot. Currently remove_vm_area() decreases
vm->size to remove the guard hole page, even when it isn't present.
This patch only decreases vm->size when VM_NO_GUARD isn't set.
