[PATCH v2 13/19] mm/hugetlb: Add a BUILD_BUG_ON to check if struct page size is a power of two

From: Muchun Song
Date: Mon Oct 26 2020 - 10:55:18 EST


We only can free the unused vmemmap to the buddy system when the
size of struct page is a power of two. So add a BUILD_BUG_ON to
check the illegal case.
