The patch titled Subject: mm, oom: remove oom_lock from exit_mmap() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-oom-remove-oom_lock-from-exit_mmap.patch This patch was dropped because it was nacked ------------------------------------------------------ From: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm, oom: remove oom_lock from exit_mmap() oom_lock isn't needed for __oom_reap_task_mm(). If MMF_UNSTABLE is already set for the mm, we can simply back out immediately since oom reaping is already in progress (or done).
