The patch titled cpuset: oom panic fix has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is cpuset-oom-panic-fix.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: cpuset: oom panic fix From: Nick Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxx> cpuset_excl_nodes_overlap always returns 0 if current is exiting. This caused customer's systems to panic in the OOM killer when processes were having trouble getting memory for the final put_user in mm_release. Even though there were lots of processes to kill. Change to returning 1 in this case. This achieves parity with !CONFIG_CPUSETS case, and was observed to fix the problem.
