Subject[PATCH 3.16 357/366] ipc/shm: fix shmat() nil address after round-down when remapping
3.16.60-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net>

commit 8f89c007b6dec16a1793cb88de88fcc02117bbbc upstream.

shmat()'s SHM_REMAP option forbids passing a nil address for; this is in
fact the very first thing we check for. Andrea reported that for
SHM_RND|SHM_REMAP cases we can end up bypassing the initial addr check,
but we need to check again if the address was rounded down to nil. As
of this patch, such cases will return -EINVAL.
