Subject: [PATCH v2] hv: hv_balloon: avoid memory leak on alloc_error of 2MB memory block
Date: Mon, 24 Nov 2014 20:32:43 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1416889963-31602-1-git-send-email-decui@microsoft.com> (raw)

If num_ballooned is not 0, we shouldn't neglect the
already-partially-allocated 2MB memory block(s).

v2: I fixed the logic error in v1, pointed by Jason Wang:
	In v1: in the case of partially-allocated 2MB, alloc_error is true,
	so we'll run "done = true" and hence we won't proceed with
	the next iteration of trying 4K allocation.

    I also changed the WARN_ON to WARN_ON_ONCE in case the host behavior
    changes in the future.
