Subject: [PATCH] mm/madvise: Move up the behavior parameter validation
Date: Thu, 13 Apr 2017 14:50:08 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170413092008.5437-1-khandual@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

The madvise_behavior_valid() function should be called before
acting upon the behavior parameter. Hence move up the function.
This also includes MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE and MADV_HWPOISON options
as valid behavior parameter for the system call madvise().

Signed-off-by: Anshuman Khandual <khandual@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This applies on top of the other madvise clean up patch I sent
earlier this week https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9672095/
