Subject: [GIT PULL] percpu fix for v5.9-rc6
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2020 20:45:14 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200917204514.GA2880159@google.com> (raw)
Hi Linus,
This is a fix for the first chunk size calculation where the variable
length array incorrectly used # of longs instead of bytes of longs. This
came in as a code fix and not a bug report, so I don't think it was
widely problematic. I believe it worked out due to it being memblock
memory and alignment requirements working in our favor.
Thanks,
Dennis
