14 * The anon_vma heads a list of private "related" vmas, to scan if
15 * an anonymous page pointing to this anon_vma needs to be unmapped:
16 * the vmas on the list will be related by forking, or by splitting.
18 * Since vmas come and go as they are split and merged (particularly
19 * in mprotect), the mapping field of an anonymous page cannot point
20 * directly to a vma: instead it points to an anon_vma, on whose list
21 * the related vmas can be easily linked or unlinked.
23 * After unlinking the last vma on the list, we must garbage collect
24 * the anon_vma object itself: we're guaranteed no page can be
25 * pointing to this anon_vma once its vma list is empty.
