Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/mm: Fix missing mmap_sem release
Date: Thu, 7 Sep 2017 18:25:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1504801529-15113-1-git-send-email-laurent.du4@free.fr> (raw)
The commit b5c8f0fd595d ("powerpc/mm: Rework mm_fault_error()") reviewed
the way the error path is managed in __do_page_fault() but it was a bit too
agressive when handling a case by returning without releasing the mmap_sem.
By the way, replacing current->mm->mmap_sem by mm->mmap_sem as mm is set to
current->mm.
Fixes: b5c8f0fd595d ("powerpc/mm: Rework mm_fault_error()")
