This fix is fairly important. Take this patch out and send it on its own
so it gets picked up relatively quickly. It does not belong in a series
that is mostly cosmetic cleanups.
I think the commit id is wrong. Shouldn't that be
df1acc856923 ("mm/page_alloc: avoid conflating IRQs disabled with
zone->lock")
?
