Are you referring to the same function in sysv_shm.c, if so probably I
can say refer the same API in win32_shmem.c or maybe add a similar
comment there as well?

I felt that it is easier to understand the code in the way it is
currently written, but I can invert the check if you find it is easier
to read and understand that way.
