From 5c26f6ac9416b63d093e29c30e79b3297e425472 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Suren Baghdasaryan Date: Fri, 4 Mar 2022 20:28:51 -0800 Subject: mm: refactor vm_area_struct::anon_vma_name usage code Avoid mixing strings and their anon_vma_name referenced pointers by using struct anon_vma_name whenever possible. This simplifies the code and allows easier sharing of anon_vma_name structures when they represent the same name.
