>Description:
When a memory region has been partially munmap()ed, subsequent
calls to munmap() on this region have no effect.
>How-To-Repeat:
The following program should segfault, but doesn't.

It mmap()s 2 pages and munmap()s them again but the second page
is still accessible.

--- test.c begins here ---
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main( int argc, char **argv ) {

    unsigned int const page_size = getpagesize();
    void *map;
    char volatile *cmap;

    map = mmap( NULL, 2 * page_size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANON, -1, 0 );
    munmap( map, page_size );
    munmap( map, 2 * page_size );

    cmap = map;
    cmap[ page_size ] = 'a';
    printf( "%c\n", cmap[ page_size ] );

    return 0;
}
--- test.c ends here ---
