usb: devio, do not warn when allocation fails
commit 70f7ca9a upstream. usbdev_mmap allocates a buffer. The size of the buffer is determined by a user. So with this code (no need to be root): int fd = open("/dev/bus/usb/001/001", O_RDONLY); mmap(NULL, 0x800000, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); we can see a warning: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 21771 at ../mm/page_alloc.c:3563 __alloc_pages_slowpath+0x1036/0x16e0() ... Call Trace: [<ffffffff8117a3ae>] ? warn_slowpath_null+0x2e/0x40 [<ffffffff815178b6>] ? __alloc_pages_slowpath+0x1036/0x16e0 [<ffffffff81516880>] ? warn_alloc_failed+0x250/0x250 [<ffffffff8151226b>] ? get_page_from_freelist+0x75b/0x28b0 [<ffffffff815184e3>] ? __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x583/0x6b0 [<ffffffff81517f60>] ? __alloc_pages_slowpath+0x16e0/0x16e0 [<ffffffff810565d4>] ? dma_generic_alloc_coherent+0x104/0x220 [<ffffffffa0269e56>] ? hcd_buffer_alloc+0x1d6/0x3e0 [usbcore] [<ffffffffa0269c80>] ? hcd_buffer_destroy+0xa0/0xa0 [usbcore] [<ffffffffa0228f05>] ? usb_alloc_coherent+0x65/0x90 [usbcore] [<ffffffffa0275c05>] ? usbdev_mmap+0x1a5/0x770 [usbcore] ... Allocations like this one should be marked as __GFP_NOWARN. So do so. The size could be also clipped by something like: if (size >= (1 << (MAX_ORDER + PAGE_SHIFT - 1))) return -ENOMEM; But I think the overall limit of 16M (by usbfs_increase_memory_usage) is enough, so that we only silence the warning here.
