Subject: quicklists: Only consider memory that can be used with GFP_KERNEL
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.24-rc8~27
X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=96990a4ae979df9e235d01097d6175759331e88c;p=pandora-kernel.git

quicklists: Only consider memory that can be used with GFP_KERNEL

Quicklists calculates the size of the quicklists based on the number of
free pages.  This must be the number of free pages that can be allocated
with GFP_KERNEL.  node_page_state() includes the pages in ZONE_HIGHMEM and
ZONE_MOVABLE which may lead the quicklists to become too large causing OOM.
