The patch titled Subject: mm: oom_kill: remove unnecessary locking in exit_oom_victim() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-oom_kill-remove-unnecessary-locking-in-exit_oom_victim.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Johannes Weiner <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: oom_kill: remove unnecessary locking in exit_oom_victim() Disabling the OOM killer needs to exclude allocators from entering, not existing victims from exiting. Right now the only waiter is suspend code, which achieves quiescence by disabling the OOM killer. But later on we want to add waits that hold the lock instead to stop new victims from showing up.
