[patch 02/16] mm: fix usemap initialization

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu May 08 2008 - 13:44:02 EST



2.6.25-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.

------------------
From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit: 86051ca5eaf5e560113ec7673462804c54284456 upstream

usemap must be initialized only when pfn is within zone. If not, it corrupts
memory.

And this patch also reduces the number of calls to set_pageblock_migratetype()
from
(pfn & (pageblock_nr_pages -1)
to
!(pfn & (pageblock_nr_pages-1)
it should be called once per pageblock.
