Doesn't this need to be: if (!vma || vma != binder_alloc_get_vma(alloc))
This way, we catch a different vma and a NULL vma.
Or even, just: if (vma != binder_alloc_get_vma(alloc))
if the alloc vma cannot be NULL?
If the vma_lookup() is NULL then we still need to isolate and free the given binder page and we obviously skip the zap() in this case.
I would have thought if there was no VMA, then the entire process could be avoided. Thanks for clarifying.
However, if we receive a random unexpected vma because of a corrupted address or similar, then the whole process is skipped.
Thus, why we use the check above.
