https://git.stealer.net/cgit.cgi/user/sven/linux.git/atom?h=v4.9.1042016-10-11T22:06:33Zmm: kmemleak: avoid using __va() on addresses that don't have a lowmem mapping2016-10-11T22:06:33ZCatalin Marinascatalin.marinas@arm.com2016-10-11T20:55:11Zurn:sha1:9099daed9c6991a512c1f74b92ec49daf9408cda
Some of the kmemleak_*() callbacks in memblock, bootmem, CMA convert a
physical address to a virtual one using __va(). However, such physical
addresses may sometimes be located in highmem and using __va() is
incorrect, leading to inconsistent object tracking in kmemleak.
The following functions have been added to the kmemleak API and they take
a physical address as the object pointer. They only perform the
corresponding action if the address has a lowmem mapping:
kmemleak_alloc_phys
kmemleak_free_part_phys
kmemleak_not_leak_phys
kmemleak_ignore_phys
The affected calling places have been updated to use the new kmemleak
API.
