Subject[PATCH v2] MIPS: Fix incorrect NULL check in local_flush_tlb_page()
Date
We check that the struct vm_area_struct pointer vma is NULL and then
dereference it a few lines below. The intent must have been to make sure
that vma is not NULL and then to check the value from cpu_context() for
the condition to be true.
