fork: clean-up naming of vm_stack/vm_struct variables in vmap stacks code
There are two data types: "struct vm_struct" and "struct vm_stack" that have the same local variable names: vm_stack, or vm, or s, which makes the code confusing to read. Change the code so the naming is consistent: struct vm_struct is always called vm_area struct vm_stack is always called vm_stack One change altering vfree(vm_stack) to vfree(vm_area->addr) may look like a semantic change but it is not: vm_area->addr points to the vm_stack. This was done to improve readability. [linus.walleij@linaro.org: rebased and added new users of the variable names, address review comments] Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20240311164638.2015063-4-pasha.tatashin@soleen.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250509-fork-fixes-v3-2-e6c69dd356f2@linaro.org Signed-off-by:Pasha Tatashin <pasha.tatashin@soleen.com> Signed-off-by:
