From 2f69fa829cb4ca062aaffee9ab9eb44484db75b1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Viro Date: Mon, 17 Mar 2014 16:01:27 -0400 Subject: percpu: allocation size should be even 723ad1d90b56 ("percpu: store offsets instead of lengths in ->map[]") updated percpu area allocator to use the lowest bit, instead of sign, to signify whether the area is occupied and forced min align to 2; unfortunately, it forgot to force the allocation size to be even causing malfunctions for the very rare odd-sized allocations. Always force the allocations to be even sized. tj: Wrote patch description.
