[PATCH 01/18] mm, hugetlb: protect reserved pages when softofflining requests the pages
From: Joonsoo Kim
Date: Mon Jul 29 2013 - 01:33:40 EST
alloc_huge_page_node() use dequeue_huge_page_node() without
any validation check, so it can steal reserved page unconditionally.
To fix it, check the number of free_huge_page in alloc_huge_page_node().
