From: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm, thp: fix setting of defer+madvise thp defrag mode Setting thp defrag mode of "defer+madvise" actually sets "defer" in the kernel due to the name similarity and the out-of-order way the string is checked in defrag_store(). Check the string in the correct order so that TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_DEFRAG_KSWAPD_OR_MADV_FLAG is set appropriately for "defer+madvise". Fixes: 21440d7eb904 ("mm, thp: add new defer+madvise defrag option") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.10.1704051814420.137626@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@xxxxxxx> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: "Kirill A.
