From 3172485f4f8032649c144e4aafa550e1e6179332 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Moyer Date: Thu, 5 Apr 2018 16:25:01 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] block_invalidatepage(): only release page if the full page was invalidated Prior to commit d47992f86b30 ("mm: change invalidatepage prototype to accept length"), an offset of 0 meant that the full page was being invalidated. After that commit, we need to instead check the length. Jan said: : : The only possible issue is that try_to_release_page() was called more : often than necessary. Otherwise the issue is harmless but still it's good : to have this fixed.
