From 445caaa20c4d6da74f426464f90513b81157ad77 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steve Longerbeam Date: Thu, 4 Aug 2016 19:31:15 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] mtd: Allocate bdi objects dynamically The MTD backing dev info objects mtd_bdi was statically allocated. So when MTD is built as a loadable module, this object fall in the vmalloc address space. The problem with that, is that the BDI APIs use wake_up_bit(), which calls virt_to_page() to retrieve the memory zone of the page containing the wait_queue to wake up, and virt_to_page() is not valid for vmalloc or highmem addresses. Fix this by allocating the BDI objects dynamically with kmalloc. The objects now fall in the logical address space so that BDI APIs will work in all cases (mtd builtin or module).
