find_vma_intersection() has been existing to search the intersected
vma. This uses the function where it's applicable, to simplify the
code.

For context, here's the definition of find_vma_intersection():

<quote>
static inline struct vm_area_struct * find_vma_intersection(struct mm_struct * 
mm, unsigned long start_addr, unsigned long end_addr)
{
        struct vm_area_struct * vma = find_vma(mm,start_addr);

        if (vma && end_addr <= vma->vm_start)
                vma = NULL;
        return vma;
}

It seems that there is a boundary issue in either the old code or the
new one in the case where (reg_end == vma->start).

Which one is which?


The old and new code is interchangeable, meaning "reg_end == vma->start"
is invalid in both cases. So if there is a boundary issue, the old and new
code should have same issue.

According to the code, "reg_end == vma->start" is invalid. So I don't see
there is a boundary issue. Hopefully, I don't miss anything :)

Thanks,
Gavin
