From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Feb 15 2011 - 19:53:26 EST


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

------------------

From: Chris Wilson <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit f7ab9b407b3bc83161c2aa74c992ba4782e87c9c upstream.

Without tmpfs, shmem_readpage() is not compiled in causing an OOPS as
soon as we try to allocate some swappable pages for GEM.
