[PATCH v2 06/16] mm/page_alloc: fix freeing static percpu memory

From: Miaohe Lin
Date: Fri Sep 16 2022 - 03:23:57 EST


The size of struct per_cpu_zonestat can be 0 on !SMP && !NUMA. In that
case, zone->per_cpu_zonestats will always equal to boot_zonestats. But
in zone_pcp_reset(), zone->per_cpu_zonestats is freed via free_percpu()
directly without checking against boot_zonestats first. boot_zonestats
will be released by free_percpu() unexpectedly.
