[PATCH 3.13.y-ckt 17/80] x86: mm: move mmap_sem unlock from mm_fault_error() to caller

From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Thu Mar 19 2015 - 18:56:08 EST


3.13.11-ckt17 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 7fb08eca45270d0ae86e1ad9d39c40b7a55d0190 upstream.

This replaces four copies in various stages of mm_fault_error() handling
with just a single one. It will also allow for more natural placement
of the unlocking after some further cleanup.
