[PATCH v2 07/12] mm/hugetlb: do not modify user provided gfp_mask

From: js1304
Date: Wed May 27 2020 - 02:46:10 EST


From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@xxxxxxx>

It's not good practice to modify user input. Instead of using it to
build correct gfp_mask for APIs, this patch introduces another gfp_mask
field, __gfp_mask, for internal usage.
