    mm: fix follow_pfnmap API lockdep assert · b1b46751
    Linus Torvalds authored
    The lockdep asserts for the new follow_pfnmap() API "knows" that a
    pfnmap always has a vma->vm_file, since that's the only way to create
    such a mapping.
    
    And that's actually true for all the normal cases.  But not for the mmap
    failure case, where the incomplete mapping is torn down and we have
    cleared vma->vm_file because the failure occured before the file was
    linked to the vma.
    
    So this codepath does actually need to check for vm_file being NULL.
