Subject: fs/direct-io.c: don't try to allocate more than BIO_MAX_PAGES in a bio
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=20d9600cb407b0b55fef6ee814b60345c6f58264;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

fs/direct-io.c: don't try to allocate more than BIO_MAX_PAGES in a bio

When using devices that support max_segments > BIO_MAX_PAGES (256), direct
IO tries to allocate a bio with more pages than allowed, which leads to an
oops in dio_bio_alloc().  Clamp the request to the supported maximum, and
change dio_bio_alloc() to reflect that bio_alloc() will always return a
bio when called with __GFP_WAIT and a valid number of vectors.
