From 3a1dfe6eefe483589c99c909202ffe1a20d589b5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2008 17:49:02 +0200 Subject: x86/mm: unify init task OOM handling Linus noticed that the "again:" versus "survive:" OOM logic for the init task was arbitrarily different. The 64-bit codepath is the better one, because it correctly re-lookups the vma after having dropped the ->mmap_sem.
