Re: [ANOMALIES]: 2.4.2 - __alloc_pages: failed - Patch failed

The way sg_low_malloc() tries to allocate, failure messages are
pretty much garanteed. It tries high order allocations (which
are unreliable even when not stressed) and backs off until it
succeeds.

In other words, the messages are a red herring.
