When system has a lot of highmem (e.g. 16GiB using a 32 bits kernel), the code to calculate how much memory we need to preallocate in normal zone may cause overflow. As Leon has analysed: It looks that during computing 'alloc' variable there is overflow: alloc = (3943404 - 1970542) - 1978280 = -5418 (signed) And this function goes to err_out. Fix this by avoiding that overflow. References: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60817 Reported-and-tested-by: Leon Drugi Signed-off-by: Aaron Lu Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
