The patch titled Subject: mm: might_sleep warning has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-initialize-pages-on-demand-during-boot-fix-4.patch This patch was dropped because it was folded into mm-initialize-pages-on-demand-during-boot.patch ------------------------------------------------------ From: Pavel Tatashin <pasha.tatashin@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: might_sleep warning Robot reported this issue: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/2/27/851 That is introduced by: mm: initialize pages on demand during boot The problem is caused by changing static branch value within spin lock. Spin lock disables preemption, and changing static branch value takes mutex lock in its path, and thus may sleep. The fix is to add another boolean variable to avoid the need to change static branch within spinlock.
