[PATCH 3.17 292/319] mm: cma: Dont crash on allocation if CMA area cant be activated
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Nov 11 2014 - 20:35:09 EST
3.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart+renesas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit f022d8cb7ec70fe8edd56383d876001317ee76b1 upstream.
If activation of the CMA area fails its mutex won't be initialized,
leading to an oops at allocation time when trying to lock the mutex. Fix
this by setting the cma area count field to 0 when activation fails,
leading to allocation returning NULL immediately.
