This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled mm: soft offline: split thp at the beginning of to the linux-3.5.y-queue branch of the 3.5.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.5.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.5.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Herton ------ From d2c263d5ad721609a82bcc037e3252ae737b5690 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com> Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2012 13:54:34 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] mm: soft offline: split thp at the beginning of soft_offline_page() commit 783657a7dc20e5c0efbc9a09a9dd38e238a723da upstream. When we try to soft-offline a thp tail page, put_page() is called on the tail page unthinkingly and VM_BUG_ON is triggered in put_compound_page(). This patch splits thp before going into the main body of soft-offlining.
