From 556f063580db2953a7e53cd46b47724246320f60 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Roman Tereshonkov Date: Tue, 29 Nov 2011 12:49:18 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mtdoops: fix the oops_page_used array size The array of unsigned long pointed by oops_page_used is allocated by vmalloc which requires the size to be in bytes. BITS_PER_LONG is equal to 32. If we want to allocate memory for 32 pages with one bit per page then 32 / BITS_PER_LONG is equal to 1 byte that is 8 bits. To fix it we need to multiply the result by sizeof(unsigned long) equal to 4.
