The patch titled Subject: memcg: clear pc->mem_cgroup if necessary. has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was memcg-clear-pc-mem_cgorup-if-necessary.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/ ------------------------------------------------------ From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: memcg: clear pc->mem_cgroup if necessary. This is a preparation before removing a flag PCG_ACCT_LRU in page_cgroup and reducing atomic ops/complexity in memcg LRU handling. In some cases, pages are added to lru before charge to memcg and pages are not classfied to memory cgroup at lru addtion. Now, the lru where the page should be added is determined a bit in page_cgroup->flags and pc->mem_cgroup. I'd like to remove the check of flag. To handle the case pc->mem_cgroup may contain stale pointers if pages are added to LRU before classification. This patch resets pc->mem_cgroup to root_mem_cgroup before lru additions.
