From 58d002097b98664e2a39cc708f30d11549d870b2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mel Gorman Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2012 13:54:20 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] mm: compaction: fix return value of capture_free_page() Commit ef6c5be658f6 ("fix incorrect NR_FREE_PAGES accounting (appears like memory leak)") fixes a NR_FREE_PAGE accounting leak but missed the return value which was also missed by this reviewer until today. That return value is used by compaction when adding pages to a list of isolated free pages and without this follow-up fix, there is a risk of free list corruption.
