I hit a following problem when run a oom case in ltp. The kernel version is 4.1 stable.

ksm_exit should take the write lock and wait all read lock is released. in fact, but I find
ksmd still hold a read lock in scan_get_next_rmap_item. thefefore, it will lead to hungtask.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.
Thanks
