Subject: [PATCH] generic ipi function calls: wait on alloc failure fallback
Date: Tue, 15 Jul 2008 13:22:49 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <487D0719.9000503@goop.org> (raw)
When a GFP_ATOMIC allocation fails, it falls back to allocating the
data on the stack and converting it to a waiting call.
Make sure we actually wait in this case.
