The patch titled Subject: mm: memcg: update the correct soft limit tree during migration has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-memcg-update-the-correct-soft-limit-tree-during-migration.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: Johannes Weiner <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: memcg: update the correct soft limit tree during migration end_migration() passes the old page instead of the new page to commit the charge. This page descriptor is not used for committing itself, though, since we also pass the (correct) page_cgroup descriptor. But it's used to find the soft limit tree through the page's zone, so the soft limit tree of the old page's zone is updated instead of that of the new page's, which might get slightly out of date until the next charge reaches the ratelimit point. This glitch has been present since 5564e88 ("memcg: condense page_cgroup-to-page lookup points"). This fixes a bug that I introduced in 2.6.38. It's benign enough (to my knowledge) that we probably don't want this for stable.
