From 44e2aa937e698ea95dd86b2a4fabd734ef2c76db Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dean Nelson Date: Tue, 26 Oct 2010 14:22:08 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm/hugetlb.c: add missing spin_lock() to hugetlb_cow() Add missing spin_lock() of the page_table_lock before an error return in hugetlb_cow(). Callers of hugtelb_cow() expect it to be held upon return.
