From d85699259bcda421e28f22b72ef2bd9e9907d66b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vasily Averin Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2018 15:08:11 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] mm/swapfile.c: use kvzalloc for swap_info_struct allocation commit 873d7bcfd066663e3e50113dc4a0de19289b6354 upstream. Commit a2468cc9bfdf ("swap: choose swap device according to numa node") changed 'avail_lists' field of 'struct swap_info_struct' to an array. In popular linux distros it increased size of swap_info_struct up to 40 Kbytes and now swap_info_struct allocation requires order-4 page. Switch to kvzmalloc allows to avoid unexpected allocation failures.
