[PATCH v2] mm: BUG when __kmap_atomic_idx equals KM_TYPE_NR

From: Chintan Pandya
Date: Thu Jul 31 2014 - 02:24:47 EST


__kmap_atomic_idx is per_cpu variable. Each CPU can
use KM_TYPE_NR entries from FIXMAP i.e. from 0 to
KM_TYPE_NR - 1. Allowing __kmap_atomic_idx to over-
shoot to KM_TYPE_NR can mess up with next CPU's 0th
entry which is a bug. Hence BUG_ON if
__kmap_atomic_idx >= KM_TYPE_NR.
