Take f_mutex around mmap() processing to protect against races with the SG_SET_RESERVED_SIZE ioctl. Ensure the reserve buffer length remains consistent during the mapping operation, and set the "mmap called" flag to prevent further changes to the reserved buffer size as an atomic operation with the mapping.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
