[PATCH 2/4] uprobes: fix register_for_each_vma()->vma_address()check

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Thu Jul 12 2012 - 13:13:09 EST


1. register_for_each_vma() checks that vma_address() == vaddr but
this is not enough. We should also ensure that vaddr >= vm_start,
find_vma() guarantees "vaddr < vm_end" only.

2. After the prevous changes, register_for_each_vma() is the only
reason why vma_address() has to return loff_t, all other users
know that we have the valid mapping at this offset and thus the
overflow is not possible.

Change the code to use vaddr_to_offset() instead, imho this looks
more clean/understandable and now we can change vma_address().

3. While at it, remove the unnecessary type-cast.
