+This patch reinstates fallback code when the 'prlimit64' system call is
+missing by reverting the relevant part of this upstream commit:
+
+  commit 695d7d138eda449678a1650a8b8b58181033353f
+  Author: Joseph Myers <joseph@codesourcery.com>
+  Date:   Tue May 9 14:05:09 2017 +0000
+
+      Assume prlimit64 is available.
+
+The fallback code is useful on systems that lack 'prlimit64', such as the
+2.6.32-on-steroid kernel found on RHEL 6:
