The patch titled Subject: mm, util: account_locked_vm() does not hold mmap_lock has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-util-account_locked_vm-does-not-hold-mmap_lock.patch This patch was dropped because it was withdrawn ------------------------------------------------------ From: Pengfei Li <fly@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm, util: account_locked_vm() does not hold mmap_lock Since mm->locked_vm is already an atomic counter, account_locked_vm() does not need to hold mmap_lock.
