4.2.8-ckt9 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From: Chris Wilson <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit db9f9203e27495b2d151b695504e286eec026e9b upstream. Holding a reference to the containing task_struct is not sufficient to prevent the mm_struct from being reaped under memory pressure. If this happens whilst we are calling get_user_pages(), explosions erupt - sometimes an immediate GPF, sometimes page flag corruption. To prevent the target mm from being reaped as we are reading from it, acquire a reference before we begin.
