[PATCH v2 10/11] mm/migration: fix potential invalid node access for reclaim-based migration

From: Miaohe Lin
Date: Thu Mar 17 2022 - 10:42:35 EST


If we failed to setup hotplug state callbacks for mm/demotion:online in
some corner cases, node_demotion will be left uninitialized. Invalid node
might be returned from the next_demotion_node() when doing reclaim-based
migration. Use kcalloc to allocate node_demotion to fix the issue.

Fixes: ac16ec835314 ("mm: migrate: support multiple target nodes demotion")
