[PATCH] unpaged: fix sound Bad page states
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Earlier I unifdefed PageCompound, so that snd_pcm_mmap_control_nopage and
others can give out a 0-order component of a higher-order page, which won't
be mistakenly freed when zap_pte_range unmaps it.  But many Bad page states
reported a PG_reserved was freed after all: I had missed that we need to
say __GFP_COMP to get compound page behaviour.

Some of these higher-order pages are allocated by snd_malloc_pages, some by
snd_malloc_dev_pages; or if SBUS, by sbus_alloc_consistent - but that has
no gfp arg, so add __GFP_COMP into its sparc32/64 implementations.

I'm still rather puzzled that DRM seems not to need a similar change.
