Subject: [PATCH v3 4/4] mm/page_alloc: remove a couple of VM_BUG_ON()st
Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2026 11:03:21 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260715-spin-trylock-followup-v3-4-fc4d246f705d@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260715-spin-trylock-followup-v3-0-fc4d246f705d@google.com>
VM_BUG_ON() is out of favour and on the way to removal, since I recently
touched alloc_pages_node_noprof() I am removing that invocation, and
also removing the __folio_alloc_node_noprof() one for consistency. If
this precondition is violated, the system will soon crash anyway.
