From b3a7822e5e7513006d74946a69bfbbc8d8472e90 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Down Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2020 21:07:33 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm, memcg: prevent mem_cgroup_protected store tearing The read side of this is all protected, but we can still tear if multiple iterations of mem_cgroup_protected are going at the same time. There's some intentional racing in mem_cgroup_protected which is ok, but load/store tearing should be avoided.
