From 6fd6b17c6d9713f56b5f20903ec3e00fa6cc435e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Wed, 31 Jan 2007 16:43:36 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "[PATCH] mm: micro optimise zone_watermark_ok" This reverts commit e80ee884ae0e3794ef2b65a18a767d502ad712ee. Pawel Sikora had a boot-time oops due to it - because the sign change invalidates the following comparisons, since 'free_pages' can be negative. The micro-optimization just isn't worth it.
