Subject: mm, percpu: Make sure percpu_alloc early parameter has an argument
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5479c78ac6f688ea5ea8c49b44cf90ea87b63931;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

mm, percpu: Make sure percpu_alloc early parameter has an argument

Otherwise we are getting a nil dereference if percpu_alloc kernel boot
argument is specified without value.
