Hi reviewers,
I suggest to backport commit "739f79fc9db1 mm: memcontrol: fix NULL
pointer crash in test_clear_page_writeback()" to linux-4.9 stable tree.
This email reports a NULL pointer crash in test_clear_page_writeback()
in android common kernel-4.9. There is a fix ("739f79fc9db1 mm:
memcontrol: fix NULL pointer crash in test_clear_page_writeback()") in
kernel-4.13.
commit: 739f79fc9db1b38f96b5a5109b247a650fbebf6d
subject: mm: memcontrol: fix NULL pointer crash in
test_clear_page_writeback()
kernel version to apply to: Linux-4.9
cheers,
Miles

Also be sure to cc: all of the people involved in that patch (the author and the cc and signed-off-by list) so they can weigh in if they do not feel that this patch should be backported to the older kernel. thanks, greg k-h ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
