Subject: [PATCH v3] mm, slab: Check GFP_SLAB_BUG_MASK before alloc_pages in
 kmalloc_order

kmalloc cannot allocate memory from HIGHMEM.  Allocating large amounts
of memory currently bypasses the check and will simply leak the memory
when page_address() returns NULL.  To fix this, factor the
GFP_SLAB_BUG_MASK check out of slab & slub, and call it from
kmalloc_order() as well. In order to make the code clear, the warning
message is put in one place.
