From: Mel Gorman <mgorman@xxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit cfc47a2803db42140167b92d991ef04018e162c7 upstream.

get_pageblock_migratetype() is called during free with IRQs disabled.
This is unnecessary and disables IRQs for longer than necessary.
