mm/vmalloc: Avoid rare case of flushing TLB with weird arguments In a rare case, flush_tlb_kernel_range() could be called with a start higher than the end. In vm_remove_mappings(), in case page_address() returns 0 for all pages (for example they were all in highmem), _vm_unmap_aliases() will be called with start = ULONG_MAX, end = 0 and flush = 1. If at the same time, the vmalloc purge operation is triggered by something else while the current operation is between remove_vm_area() and _vm_unmap_aliases(), then the vm mapping just removed will be already purged. In this case the call of vm_unmap_aliases() may not find any other mappings to flush and so end up flushing start = ULONG_MAX, end = 0. So only set flush = true if we find something in the direct mapping that we need to flush, and this way this can't happen.
