Subject: [patch] mm: compaction: make compact_control order signed
Date: Wed, 01 Feb 2012 14:41:01 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120201144101.GA5397@elgon.mountain> (raw)

"order" is -1 when compacting via /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory.  Making
it unsigned causes a bug in __compact_pgdat() when we test:

	if (cc->order < 0 || !compaction_deferred(zone, cc->order))
		compact_zone(zone, cc);
