As I have said many times before, don't add random boolean flags to
function arguments, as they provide no hint as to what they do at all.
When you read the code, you then have to go back and look up the
function definition here and see what exactly it means and the flow is
broken.

Make function names mean something obvious, for this, if it really is a
good idea to have this new flag (and I doubt it, but that's not my
call), then make this a mmap_region_populate() call to make it obvious
it is something different than the notmal mmap_region() call.

But as is, this is pretty horrid, don't you agree?

thanks,

greg k-h
