Message-ID: <20160606200538.GA31983@mwanda> (raw)

Hello Minchan Kim,

The patch b37284200b39: "mm: add NR_ZSMALLOC to vmstat" from Jun 5,
2016, leads to the following static checker warning:

	mm/zsmalloc.c:1155 alloc_zspage()
	error: we previously assumed 'page' could be null (see line 1152)

mm/zsmalloc.c
  1130  /*
