** Description changed:

- Linux kernel: mm/hotplug: failure in propagating hot-added memory to
- other nodes
+ The online_pages function in mm/memory_hotplug.c in the Linux kernel
+ before 3.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer
+ dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact
+ in opportunistic circumstances by using memory that was hot-added by an
+ administrator.
