[PATCH] mm/vmscan: fix unsequenced modification and access warning
From: Nick Desaulniers
Date: Wed May 10 2017 - 02:54:07 EST
Clang flags this file with the -Wunsequenced error that GCC does not
have.
unsequenced modification and access to 'gfp_mask'
It seems that gfp_mask is both read and written without a sequence point
in between, which is undefined behavior.
