From 783657a7dc20e5c0efbc9a09a9dd38e238a723da Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Naoya Horiguchi Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2012 13:54:34 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] mm: soft offline: split thp at the beginning of soft_offline_page() When we try to soft-offline a thp tail page, put_page() is called on the tail page unthinkingly and VM_BUG_ON is triggered in put_compound_page(). This patch splits thp before going into the main body of soft-offlining.
