Subject[PATCH 1/2] mm,hugetlb: make unmap_ref_private() return void
Date
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.
