If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Marek Szyprowski commit c091c71ad2218fc50a07b3d1dab85783f3b77efd upstream. GFP_ATOMIC is not a single gfp flag, but a macro which expands to the other flags, where meaningful is the LACK of __GFP_WAIT flag. To check if caller wants to perform an atomic allocation, the code must test for a lack of the __GFP_WAIT flag. This patch fixes the issue introduced in v3.5-rc1.
