[PATCH RFC 1/1] mm, page_alloc: fix incorrect zone_statistics data

From: Jia He
Date: Mon Dec 12 2016 - 00:59:39 EST


In commit b9f00e147f27 ("mm, page_alloc: reduce branches in
zone_statistics"), it reconstructed codes to reduce the branch miss rate.
Compared with the original logic, it assumed if !(flag & __GFP_OTHER_NODE)
z->node would not be equal to preferred_zone->node. That seems to be
incorrect.

Fixes: commit b9f00e147f27 ("mm, page_alloc: reduce branches in
zone_statistics")
