Subject: [PATCH RESEND 1/3] memcg: mm_update_next_owner() should skip kthreads
Date: Mon, 28 Apr 2014 17:19:41 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140428151941.GA20747@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140428151926.GA20729@redhat.com>

"Search through everything else" in mm_update_next_owner() can
hit a kthread which adopted this "mm" via use_mm(), it should
not be used as mm->owner. Add the PF_KTHREAD check.

While at it, change this code to use for_each_process_thread()
instead of deprecated do_each_thread/while_each_thread.
