[PATCH] perf/ring_buffer: Fix invalid page order
From: Takao Indoh
Date: Tue Nov 15 2016 - 02:28:32 EST
In rb_alloc_aux_page(), a page order is set to MAX_ORDER when order is
greater than MAX_ORDER, but page order should be less than MAX_ORDER,
therefore alloc_pages_node fails at least once. This patch fixes page
order so that it can be always less than MAX_ORDER.
