The patch titled
Subject: proc: return -ENOMEM when inode allocation failed
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
proc-return-enomem-when-inode-allocation-failed.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: yan <clouds.yan@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: proc: return -ENOMEM when inode allocation failed
If proc_get_inode() returns NULL then presumably it encountered memory
exhaustion. proc_lookup_de() should return -ENOMEM in this case, not
-EINVAL.
