Naoya Horiguchi 03151c6e0b mm/memory-failure: send SIGBUS(BUS_MCEERR_AR) only to current thread 
Action Required memory error should happen only when a processor is
about to access to a corrupted memory, so it's synchronous and only
affects current process/thread.

Recently commit 872e9a205c ("mm, memory_failure: don't send
BUS_MCEERR_AO for action required error") fixed the issue that Action
Required memory could unnecessarily send SIGBUS to the processes which
share the error memory.  But we still have another issue that we could
send SIGBUS to a wrong thread.

This is because collect_procs() and task_early_kill() fails to add the
current process to "to-kill" list.  So this patch is suggesting to fix
it.  With this fix, SIGBUS(BUS_MCEERR_AR) is never sent to non-current
process/thread.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
