From 053837fce7aa79025ed57656855df09f80175527 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Date: Wed, 18 Jan 2006 17:42:27 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] mm: migration page refcounting fix Migration code currently does not take a reference to target page properly, so between unlocking the pte and trying to take a new reference to the page with isolate_lru_page, anything could happen to it. Fix this by holding the pte lock until we get a chance to elevate the refcount. Other small cleanups while we're here.
