Li Xinhai e39a4b332d mm: set vm_next and vm_prev to NULL in vm_area_dup()
Set ->vm_next and ->vm_prev to NULL to prevent potential misuse from the
new duplicated vma.

Currently, only in fork path there are misuse for handling anon_vma.  No
other bugs been revealed with this patch applied.

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.
