Report it even if CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM is not enabled.
That saves much debugging efforts.
Please take considerably more care when preparing patch changelogs.
Okay. I will prepare new commit message.
kmap_atomic() is a very commonly called function so we'll need much
more detail than this to justify adding overhead to it.
I don't think CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM really needs to exist. We could do
s/CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM/CONFIG_DEBUG_VM/g and perhaps your secret bug
whatever it was would have been found more easily.
Um, we didn't get bug directly hitting here.
__kmap_atomic_idx should not be equal to KM_TYPE_NR anyway. So, at least
I will share that patch. For changing DEBUG_HIGHMEM to DEBUG_VM, I will
work on it.
