From: SeongJae Park <sj@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/damon/dbgfs: use '__GFP_NOWARN' for user-specified size buffer allocation Patch series "DAMON fixes". This patch (of 2): DAMON users can trigger below warning in '__alloc_pages()' by invoking write() to some DAMON debugfs files with arbitrarily high count argument, because DAMON debugfs interface allocates some buffers based on the user-specified 'count'. if (unlikely(order >= MAX_ORDER)) { WARN_ON_ONCE(!(gfp & __GFP_NOWARN)); return NULL; } Because the DAMON debugfs interface code checks failure of the 'kmalloc()', this commit simply suppresses the warnings by adding '__GFP_NOWARN' flag.
