4.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Laurent Dufour <ldufour@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit de0c799bba2610a8e1e9a50d76a28614520a4cd4 upstream. Seen while reading the code, in handle_mm_fault(), in the case arch_vma_access_permitted() is failing the call to mem_cgroup_oom_disable() is not made. To fix that, move the call to mem_cgroup_oom_enable() after calling arch_vma_access_permitted() as it should not have entered the memcg OOM.
