Subject: [userns-always-map-user-v136] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL
pointer dereference at (null)
Hi Eric,
It's beyond me why this trivial patch will lead to kernel panic. But
the NULL pointer dereference bug is 100% reproducible since this commit.
commit fd97e87d4112f5ec33223b0bdc3b7b07b273ecbe
Author: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@...ssion.com>
Date: Thu Oct 3 14:58:53 2013 -0700
pid: Stop open coding is_idle_task in fork.
This makes the code clearer and it removes one more use of task->pid.
