The patch titled Subject: mm: change nr_ptes BUG_ON to WARN_ON has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-change-nr_ptes-bug_on-to-warn_on.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: change nr_ptes BUG_ON to WARN_ON Occasionally an isolated BUG_ON(mm->nr_ptes) gets reported, indicating that not all the page tables allocated could be found and freed when exit_mmap() tore down the user address space. There's usually nothing we can say about it, beyond that it's probably a sign of some bad memory or memory corruption; though it might still indicate a bug in vma or page table management (and did recently reveal a race in THP, fixed a few months ago). But one overdue change we can make is from BUG_ON to WARN_ON. It's fairly likely that the system will crash shortly afterwards in some other way (for example, the BUG_ON(page_mapped(page)) in __delete_from_page_cache(), once an inode mapped into the lost page tables gets evicted); but might tell us more before that. Change the BUG_ON(page_mapped) to WARN_ON too? Later perhaps: I'm less eager, since that one has several times led to fixes.
