Subject: [PATCH 5.11 593/601] mm/memory-failure: unnecessary amount of unmapping

From: Jane Chu <jane.chu@...cle.com>

[ Upstream commit 4d75136be8bf3ae01b0bc3e725b2cdc921e103bd ]

It appears that unmap_mapping_range() actually takes a 'size' as its third
argument rather than a location, the current calling fashion causes
unnecessary amount of unmapping to occur.
