[PATCH 3.11 098/208] mm: fix use-after-free in sys_remap_file_pages

[Luis Henriques]

3.11.10.3 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Rik van Riel <riel@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4eb919825e6c3c7fb3630d5621f6d11e98a18b3a upstream.

remap_file_pages calls mmap_region, which may merge the VMA with other
existing VMAs, and free "vma".  This can lead to a use-after-free bug.
Avoid the bug by remembering vm_flags before calling mmap_region, and
not trying to dereference vma later.
