ipc/shm: remove special shm_alloc/free
There is nothing special about the shm_alloc/free routines any more, so remove them to make code more readable. [manfred@colorfullife.com: Rediff, to continue to keep rcu for free calls after a successful security_shm_alloc()] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170525185107.12869-18-manfred@colorfullife.com Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
