From: Anton Salikhmetov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

The patch contains substantial code cleanup of the sys_msync() function:

1) consolidated error check for function parameters;
2) using the PAGE_ALIGN() macro instead of "manual" alignment;
3) improved readability of the loop traversing the process memory regions.
