From 8888177ea116d4d14ca0a2ba054d02f35b0dae29 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joonsoo Kim Date: Thu, 19 May 2016 17:10:05 -0700 Subject: mm/slab: remove BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC again Initial attemp to remove BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC is once reverted by 'commit edcad2509550 ("Revert "slab: remove BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC"")' because it causes a problem on m68k which has many node but !CONFIG_NUMA. In this case, although alien cache isn't used at all but to cope with some initialization path, garbage value is used and that is BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC. Now, this patch set use_alien_caches to 0 when !CONFIG_NUMA, there is no initialization path problem so we don't need BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC at all. So remove it.
