Subject: [PATCH] coredump_wait() cleanup
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2384f55f8aa520172c995965bd2f8a9740d53095;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[PATCH] coredump_wait() cleanup

This patch deletes pointless code from coredump_wait().

1. It does useless mm->core_waiters inc/dec under mm->mmap_sem,
   but any changes to ->core_waiters have no effect until we drop
   ->mmap_sem.

2. It calls yield() for absolutely unknown reason.
