Subject: 2.6.33-rc6: ext4 triggers warning about high order allocations
Date: Wed, 3 Feb 2010 08:08:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100203060854.GA12489@redhat.com> (raw)

Hi!

I have not noticed this warning previously on the same kernel, so it's not
easily reproducible.  The system functions fine after this: __GFP_NOWARN
missing somewhere?

Thanks,
