If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.16.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 6f644ea3a04d90c806adddbf8419a04f17809cd4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Mon, 15 Dec 2014 14:46:06 -0800 Subject: x86: mm: move mmap_sem unlock from mm_fault_error() to caller commit 7fb08eca45270d0ae86e1ad9d39c40b7a55d0190 upstream. This replaces four copies in various stages of mm_fault_error() handling with just a single one. It will also allow for more natural placement of the unlocking after some further cleanup.
