The patch titled
mm: check for no mmaps in exit_mmap()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-check-for-no-mmaps-in-exit_mmap.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

Subject: mm: check for no mmaps in exit_mmap()
From: Johannes Weiner <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx>
When dup_mmap() ooms we can end up with mm->mmap == NULL. The error
path does mmput() and unmap_vmas() gets a NULL vma which it
dereferences.
In exit_mmap() there is nothing to do at all for this case, we can
cancel the callpath right there.
