Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> It seems eccentric to implement MAP_POPULATE only on PROT_NONE mappings: do_mmap_pgoff is passing down prot, then sys_remap_file_pages verifies it's not set. I guess that's an oversight from when we realized that the prot arg to sys_remap_file_pages was misdesigned. There's another oddity whose heritage is harder for me to understand, so please let me leave it to you: sys_remap_file_pages is declared as asmlinkage in mm/fremap.c, but is the one syscall declared without asmlinkage in include/linux/syscalls.h.
