yeah, 2.6.10 makes sense to me too. But I'm working in -mm2, and
the new2 = NULL line is missing, hence my initial confusion. Trivial
patch to -mm2 attached. Just want to make sure it has been, or will be,
put back in.
 

       
That sounds weird. Can you figure out which patch in mm removes it?


     
found it:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.10/2.6.10-mm1/broken-out/mempolicy-optimization.patch
   
Are you sure? I don't see it touching the new2 free at the end of the function.
 
it's not touching the new2 free, it's removing the new2 = NULL which is 
the problem.

-				new2 = NULL;
