Subject: mm,hugetlb: make unmap_ref_private() return void
X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~176^2~3462^2~131
X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2f4612af43d4854c892f5ef8ed7a98b6492aee44;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git

mm,hugetlb: make unmap_ref_private() return void

This function always returns 1, thus no need to check return value in
hugetlb_cow().  By doing so, we can get rid of the unnecessary WARN_ON
call.  While this logic perhaps existed as a way of identifying future
unmap_ref_private() mishandling, reality is it serves no apparent
purpose.
