[PATCH -mm] mm/khugepaged: fix scan not aborted on SCAN_EXCEED_SWAP_PTE

From: Vladimir Davydov
Date: Fri Sep 18 2015 - 11:43:43 EST


This patch fixes a typo in khugepaged_scan_pmd(): instead of setting
"result" to SCAN_EXCEED_SWAP_PTE we set "ret". Setting "ret" results in
an attempt to collapse a huge page although we meant aborting the scan.
As a result, we can call khugepaged_find_target_node() with all entries
in the khugepaged_node_load array being zeros. The latter is not ready
for that and might return an offline node on such input. This leads to a
warning followed by kernel panic:
