If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Minchan Kim commit db1aecafef58b5dda39c4228debe2c845e4a27ab upstream. vmap_area->private is void* but we don't use the field for various purpose but use only for vm_struct. So change it to a vm_struct* with naming to improve for readability and type checking.
