[PATCH] tmpfs/ramfs: Let memfd_create() work on nommu

[Daniel Palmer <daniel@thingy.jp>]

Currently trying to use memfd_create() on nommu returns
an error with errno set to EFBIG. The manpage memfd_create()
doesn't have EFBIG as a possible error value.

Doing some digging this is coming from 0 getting passed as
newsize to ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping() and that getting
into get_order() and there "The result is undefined if the size is 0".

Whatever comes out of get_order() is then used in the following
logic and that results in the EFBIG that causes the syscall
to fail and the errno in userspace.

If newsize is 0 there is nothing to do so just return.

Roughly tested on m68k nommu by creating a process, creating
an memfd, forking another process, mmap()ing the memfd in the
child, writing into the mapping, then mmap()ing in the parent
and checking that the right data is there.

Really not sure if this is correct. It works for me but on
nommu a lot of things just work because there is no MMU to
shout about badness.

Maybe shashiko will say this is a dumb patch and explain
the proper fix. :)

Also I had almost no idea who to send this to from the output
of get_maintainer.pl.
