The following program will trigger the BUG_ON that this patch removes,
because the user can munmap() mm->brk:
#include <sys/syscall.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <assert.h>
#include <unistd.h>
static void *brk_now(void)
{
return (void *)syscall(SYS_brk, 0);
}
static void brk_set(void *b)
{
assert(syscall(SYS_brk, b) != -1);
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
void *b = brk_now();
brk_set(b + 4096);
assert(munmap(b - 4096, 4096 * 2) == 0);
brk_set(b);
return 0;
}
Compile that with musl, since glibc actually uses brk(), and then
execute it, and it'll hit this splat:

Instead, just return the old brk value if the original mapping has been
removed.

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.
