Subject: [PATCH] mm: debugfs: move rounddown_pow_of_two() out from do_fault
path
do_fault_around() expects fault_around_bytes rounded down to nearest page
order. Instead of calling rounddown_pow_of_two every time in
fault_around_pages()/fault_around_mask() we could do round down when user
changes fault_around_bytes via debugfs interface.
This also fixes bug when user set fault_around_bytes to 0. Result of
rounddown_pow_of_two(0) is not defined, therefore fault_around_bytes == 0
doesn't work without this patch.
Let's set fault_around_bytes to PAGE_SIZE if user sets to something less
than PAGE_SIZE
[akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: tweak code layout]
Fixes: a9b0f861("mm: nominate faultaround area in bytes rather than page order")
