4 Subject: mm/page_alloc: don't call pfn_to_page() on possibly non-existent PFN in split_large_buddy()
6 From: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com>
8 commit faeec8e23c10bd30e8aa759a2eb3018dae00f924 upstream.
10 In split_large_buddy(), we might call pfn_to_page() on a PFN that might
11 not exist. In corner cases, such as when freeing the highest pageblock in
12 the last memory section, this could result with CONFIG_SPARSEMEM &&
13 !CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME in __pfn_to_section() returning NULL and and
14 __section_mem_map_addr() dereferencing that NULL pointer.
16 Let's fix it, and avoid doing a pfn_to_page() call for the first
17 iteration, where we already have the page.
19 So far this was found by code inspection, but let's just CC stable as the
