From 9c21dae291d1b7763b749dfaef3fb911286c0d98 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Davidlohr Bueso Date: Tue, 4 Sep 2018 15:46:02 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ipc/shm: properly return EIDRM in shm_lock() When getting rid of the general ipc_lock(), this was missed furthermore, making the comment around the ipc object validity check bogus. Under EIDRM conditions, callers will in turn not see the error and continue with the operation.
