The patch titled Subject: proc: do mmput ASAP for /proc/*/map_files has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is proc-do-mmput-asap-for-proc-map_files.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/proc-do-mmput-asap-for-proc-map_files.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/proc-do-mmput-asap-for-proc-map_files.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: proc: do mmput ASAP for /proc/*/map_files mm_struct is not needed while printing as all the data was already extracted.
