This would break some which do not have any fallback. E.g. xfs_buf_alloc_pages but likely more. Sorry I could have been more specific when talking about bypassing the bulk allocator. It is quite confusing because the bulk allocator interface consists of the bulk allocator and the fallback to the normal page allocator. > + > /* > * Skip populated array elements to determine if any pages need > * to be allocated before disabling IRQs. > -- > 2.33.0.882.g93a45727a2-goog -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs
