[PATCH 16/18] drm/i915: make i915_gem_mmap_ioctl wait for mmap_sem killable

From: Michal Hocko
Date: Tue Apr 26 2016 - 08:57:57 EST


From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx>

i915_gem_mmap_ioctl relies on mmap_sem for write. If the waiting
task gets killed by the oom killer it would block oom_reaper from
asynchronous address space reclaim and reduce the chances of timely OOM
resolving. Wait for the lock in the killable mode and return with EINTR
if the task got killed while waiting.
