mm: madvise(): correct return code
The posix_madvise() function succeeds (and does nothing) when called with parameters (NULL, 0, -1); according to LSB tests, it should fail with EINVAL because -1 is not a valid flag. When called with a valid address and size, it correctly fails. So perform an initial check for valid flags first. Reported-by:Jiri Dluhos <jdluhos@novell.com> Signed-off-by:
