Subject: [PATCH] fix potential stack overflow in mm/slab.c
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d2e7b7d0aa021847c59f882b066e7d3812902870;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[PATCH] fix potential stack overflow in mm/slab.c

On High end systems (1024 or so cpus) this can potentially cause stack
overflow. Fix the stack usage.
