The patch titled page-allocator: allow too high-order warning messages to be suppressed with __GFP_NOWARN has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was page-allocator-allow-too-high-order-warning-messages-to-be-suppressed-with-__gfp_nowarn.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: page-allocator: allow too high-order warning messages to be suppressed with __GFP_NOWARN From: Mel Gorman <mel@xxxxxxxxx> The page allocator warns once when an order >= MAX_ORDER is specified. This is to catch callers of the allocator that are always falling back to their worst-case when it was not expected. However, there are cases where the caller is behaving correctly but cannot suppress the warning. This patch allows the warning to be suppressed by the callers by specifying __GFP_NOWARN.
