The patch titled Subject: kernel/fork: use vfree_atomic() to free thread stack has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kernel-fork-use-vfree_atomic-to-free-thread-stack.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kernel/fork: use vfree_atomic() to free thread stack vfree() is going to use sleeping lock. Thread stack freed in atomic context, therefore we must use vfree_atomic() here.
