Subject: [PATCH RESEND 3/3] memcg: kill start_kernel()->mm_init_owner(&init_mm)
Date: Mon, 28 Apr 2014 17:19:47 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140428151947.GA20757@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140428151926.GA20729@redhat.com>

Remove start_kernel()->mm_init_owner(&init_mm, &init_task).

This doesn't really hurt but unnecessary and misleading. init_task
is the "swapper" thread == current, its ->mm is always NULL. And
init_mm can only be used as ->active_mm, not as ->mm.

mm_init_owner() has a single caller with this patch, perhaps it
should die. mm_init() can initialize ->owner under #ifdef.
