Andi thought this was important enough to go in to 23 as a bug fix. I think it's at least as important as the one you acked. However, I don't know that anyone has ever cited a problem with it. Then again, they might not notice if they occasionally leak a mempolicy struct, or use a freed or reused one for page allocation. I'd be happier to see it cook in -mm for a while. So, I'll go ahead and rebase atop Mel's patches. Thoughts? Lee -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
