The patch titled
Subject: shmem: fix faulting into a hole, not taking i_mutex: fix
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
shmem-fix-faulting-into-a-hole-not-taking-i_mutex-fix.patch
This patch was dropped because it was folded into shmem-fix-faulting-into-a-hole-not-taking-i_mutex.patch
------------------------------------------------------
From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: shmem: fix faulting into a hole, not taking i_mutex: fix
Sasha reports various nasty trinity crashes when shmem_fault() tries to
finish_wait(), we guess from rare cases when the wait_queue_head on
shmem_fallocate()'s stack has already gone. Fix those by using
TASK_UNINTERRUPIBLE instead of TASK_KILLABLE in prepare_to_wait(), that's
much simpler and safer: TASK_KILLABLE was a nice aspiration, but not worth
any more hassle.
