Subject: mm/page_alloc: do bulk array bounds check after checking populated elements
Dan Carpenter reported the following
The patch 0f87d9d30f21: "mm/page_alloc: add an array-based interface
to the bulk page allocator" from Apr 29, 2021, leads to the following
static checker warning:
mm/page_alloc.c:5338 __alloc_pages_bulk()
warn: potentially one past the end of array 'page_array[nr_populated]'
The problem can occur if an array is passed in that is fully populated.
That potentially ends up allocating a single page and storing it past the
end of the array. This patch returns 0 if the array is fully populated.
