Subject: thp+memcg-numa: fix BUG at include/linux/mm.h:370!
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?p=mv-sheeva.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=2fbfac4e053861925fa3fffcdc327649b09af54c

thp+memcg-numa: fix BUG at include/linux/mm.h:370!

THP's collapse_huge_page() has an understandable but ugly difference
in when its huge page is allocated: inside if NUMA but outside if not.
It's hardly surprising that the memcg failure path forgot that, freeing
the page in the non-NUMA case, then hitting a VM_BUG_ON in get_page()
(or even worse, using the freed page).
