Subject: [PATCH 1/2] mm: thp: Return the correct value for change_huge_pmd
Date: Thu,  5 Mar 2015 23:54:51 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1425599692-32445-2-git-send-email-mgorman@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1425599692-32445-1-git-send-email-mgorman@suse.de>

The wrong value is being returned by change_huge_pmd since commit
10c1045f28e8 ("mm: numa: avoid unnecessary TLB flushes when setting
NUMA hinting entries") which allows a fallthrough that tries to adjust
non-existent PTEs. This patch corrects it.
