[RFC v9 PATCH 13/21] memory-hotplug: check page type in get_page_bootmem
From: wency
Date: Wed Sep 05 2012 - 05:46:25 EST
From: Yasuaki Ishimatsu <isimatu.yasuaki@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The function get_page_bootmem() may be called more than one time to the same
page. There is no need to set page's type, private if the function is not
the first time called to the page.
Note: the patch is just optimization and does not fix any problem.
