From 74ab7f1d3f22ccb02f8b14f1f2375416b1ab0adb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Rientjes Date: Mon, 9 Aug 2010 17:18:46 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] oom: improve commentary in dump_tasks() The comments in dump_tasks() should be updated to be more clear about why tasks are filtered and how they are filtered by its argument. An unnecessary comment concerning a check for is_global_init() is removed since it isn't of importance.
