Subject: Re: UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in mm/page_alloc.c

Andrew, could you take the patch please? This patch contains a comment
update as suggested by Tetsuo. I do not think there were any other
unresolved concerns.

Subject: [PATCH] mm, page_alloc: check for max order in hot path

Konstantin has noticed that kvmalloc might trigger the following warning

the problem is that we only check for an out of bound order in the slow
path and the node reclaim might happen from the fast path already. This
is fixable by making sure that kvmalloc doesn't ever use kmalloc for
requests that are larger than KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE but this also shows that
the code is rather fragile. A recent UBSAN report just underlines that
by the following report

 UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in mm/page_alloc.c:3117:19

Note that this is not a kvmalloc path. It is just that the fast path
really depends on having sanitzed order as well. Therefore move the
order check to the fast path.
