Mike Kravetz dba58d3b8c mm/mremap: fail map duplication attempts for private mappings
mremap will attempt to create a 'duplicate' mapping if old_size == 0 is
specified.  In the case of private mappings, mremap will actually create
a fresh separate private mapping unrelated to the original.  This does
not fit with the design semantics of mremap as the intention is to
create a new mapping based on the original.

Therefore, return EINVAL in the case where an attempt is made to
duplicate a private mapping.  Also, print a warning message (once) if
such an attempt is made.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
