Linux kernel source tree
After we have unlocked the mmap_lock for I/O, the file is pinned, but
the VMA is not. Checking this flag after that can be a use-after-free.
It's not a terribly interesting use-after-free as it can only read one
bit, and it's used to decide whether to read 2MB or 4MB. But it
upsets the automated tools and it's generally bad practice anyway,
so let's fix it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
