Subject: [PATCH] fix BUG_ON(!PageSlab) from fallback_alloc
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b6a60451813bad6a9f57cb159004c3b3e12a1cd3;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

[PATCH] fix BUG_ON(!PageSlab) from fallback_alloc

pdflush hit the BUG_ON(!PageSlab(page)) in kmem_freepages called from
fallback_alloc: cache_grow already freed those pages when alloc_slabmgmt
failed.  But it wouldn't have freed them if __GFP_NO_GROW, so make sure
fallback_alloc doesn't waste its time on that case.
