Hi gregkh,
I don't think this should be classified as a CVE because the
patch primarily addresses a performance issue in a rare scenario.
If you agree, could you please help revoke this CVE?
Thanks,
Quanmin Yan

But in that "rare scenario" it is a system denial of service, making
ksmd deadlocked. Isn't that a real issue that was fixed here?
