Subject[PATCH 1/6] Revert "mm: mempolicy: Let vma_merge and vma_split handle vma->vm_policy linkages"
Date
From: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@gmail.com>

commit 05f144a0d5 removed vma->vm_policy updates code and it is a purpose of
mbind_range(). Now, mbind_range() is virtually no-op. no-op function don't
makes any bugs, I agree. but maybe it is not right fix.
