From 6347e2a10f7031dc3725e6f4519089517c0ca521 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ley Foon Tan Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2015 15:35:25 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] nios2: mm: do not invoke OOM killer on kernel fault OOM Follow commit 871341023c771ad. Kernel faults are expected to handle OOM conditions gracefully (gup, uaccess etc.), so they should never invoke the OOM killer. Reserve this for faults triggered in user context when it is the only option.
