Subject: [PATCH v7 3/4] mm/vmalloc: revert "mm/vmalloc.c: check VM_UNINITIALIZED flag in s_show instead of show_numa_info"
Date: Wed, 25 Sep 2013 09:02:43 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1380070964-12975-3-git-send-email-liwanp@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1380070964-12975-1-git-send-email-liwanp@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Changelog:
 *v2 -> v3: revert commit d157a558 directly

The VM_UNINITIALIZED/VM_UNLIST flag introduced by commit f5252e00(mm: avoid
null pointer access in vm_struct via /proc/vmallocinfo) is used to avoid
accessing the pages field with unallocated page when show_numa_info() is
called. This patch move the check just before show_numa_info in order that
some messages still can be dumped via /proc/vmallocinfo. This patch revert
commit d157a558 (mm/vmalloc.c: check VM_UNINITIALIZED flag in s_show instead
of show_numa_info);
