yup, I'll scoot that into 3.17.


That code's actually pretty cruddy. How does this look?

From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/mmap.c: clean up CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_RB checks

- be consistent in printing the test which failed

- one message was actually wrong (a<b != b>a)

- don't print second bogus warning if browse_rb() failed
