[PATCH 5.4 17/80] gfs2: Multi-block allocations in gfs2_page_mkwrite

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Dec 19 2019 - 13:54:05 EST


From: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruenba@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit f53056c43063257ae4159d83c425eaeb772bcd71 upstream.

In gfs2_page_mkwrite's gfs2_allocate_page_backing helper, try to
allocate as many blocks at once as we need. Pass in the size of the
requested allocation.

Fixes: 35af80aef99b ("gfs2: don't use buffer_heads in gfs2_allocate_page_backing")
