This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: fs/proc/base.c: fix GPF in /proc/$PID/map_files
The expected logic of proc_map_files_get_link() is either to return 0 and
initialize 'path' or return an error and leave 'path' uninitialized. By
the time dname_to_vma_addr() returns 0 the corresponding vma may have
already be gone. In this case the path is not initialized but the return
value is still 0. This results in 'general protection fault' inside
d_path().
Steps to reproduce:
CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE=y
fd = open(...);
while (1) {
mmap(fd, ...);
munmap(fd, ...);
}
ls -la /proc/$PID/map_files
