Hi Alexandru.

There is another point to change kmemdup.

-       nm_i->bitmap_size = __bitmap_size(sbi, NAT_BITMAP);
-       nm_i->init_scan_nid = le32_to_cpu(sbi->ckpt->next_free_nid);
-       nm_i->next_scan_nid = le32_to_cpu(sbi->ckpt->next_free_nid);
+        nm_i->init_scan_nid = le32_to_cpu(sbi->ckpt->next_free_nid);

+        nm_i->bitmap_size = __bitmap_size(sbi, NAT_BITMAP);
+        version_bitmap = __bitmap_ptr(sbi, NAT_BITMAP);

GFP_KERNEL);

-       memcpy(nm_i->nat_bitmap, version_bitmap, nm_i->bitmap_size);

If you agree, Could you send the patch include the above one again ?

Thanks.
