[PATCH] mm/vmalloc.c: Remove always-true conditional in vmap_init_free_space
From: Pengfei Li
Date: Mon Jul 08 2019 - 13:06:59 EST
When unsigned long variables are subtracted from one another,
the result is always non-negative.
The vmap_area_list is sorted by address.
So the following two conditions are always true.
1) if (busy->va_start - vmap_start > 0)
2) if (vmap_end - vmap_start > 0)
Just remove them.
