Date: Thu, 21 Jul 2016 13:45:40 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <22416.50164.521430.604730@mariner.uk.xensource.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <73189037-1a4e-915a-7120-112f2afe3342@dd-wrt.com>

I see that linux-4.1.y is still at 5880876e9469 which has the serious
bug introduced by the backport c5ad33184354 "mm/swap.c: flush lru
pvecs on compound page arrival".

The analogous problem is also still affecting at least linux-3.18.y.

Is there some problem with reverting this patch in the stable
branches ?

Thanks,
Ian.
