Subject: [PATCH v2 3/7] mm: list_lru: move list dead check to lock_list_lru_of_memcg()
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2026 16:51:51 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260312205321.638053-4-hannes@cmpxchg.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260312205321.638053-1-hannes@cmpxchg.org>
Only the MEMCG variant of lock_list_lru() needs to check if there is a
race with cgroup deletion and list reparenting. Move the check to the
caller, so that the next patch can unify the lock_list_lru() variants.
