From: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@xxxxxxx> While looking at node_states_check_changes_online, I stumbled upon some confusing things. Right after entering the function, we find this: if (N_MEMORY == N_NORMAL_MEMORY) zone_last = ZONE_MOVABLE; This is wrong. N_MEMORY cannot really be equal to N_NORMAL_MEMORY. My guess is that this wanted to be something like: if (N_NORMAL_MEMORY == N_HIGH_MEMORY) to check if we have CONFIG_HIGHMEM. Later on, in the CONFIG_HIGHMEM block, we have: if (N_MEMORY == N_HIGH_MEMORY) zone_last = ZONE_MOVABLE; Again, this is wrong, and will never be evaluated to true. Besides removing these wrong if statements, I simplified the function a bit.
