mm, compaction: fully assume capture is not NULL in compact_zone_order()
to #26255339 commit 6467552ca64c4ddd2b83ed73192107d7145f533b upstream Dan reports: The patch 5e1f0f098b46: "mm, compaction: capture a page under direct compaction" from Mar 5, 2019, leads to the following Smatch complaint: mm/compaction.c:2321 compact_zone_order() error: we previously assumed 'capture' could be null (see line 2313) mm/compaction.c 2288 static enum compact_result compact_zone_order(struct zone *zone, int order, 2289 gfp_t gfp_mask, enum compact_priority prio, 2290 unsigned int alloc_flags, int classzone_idx, 2291 struct page **capture) ^^^^^^^ 2313 if (capture) ^^^^^^^ Check for NULL 2314 current->capture_control = &capc; 2315 2316 ret = compact_zone(&cc, &capc); 2317 2318 VM_BUG_ON(!list_empty(&cc.freepages)); 2319 VM_BUG_ON(!list_empty(&cc.migratepages)); 2320 2321 *capture = capc.page; ^^^^^^^^ Unchecked dereference. 2322 current->capture_control = NULL; 2323 In practice this is not an issue, as the only caller path passes non-NULL capture: __alloc_pages_direct_compact() struct page *page = NULL; try_to_compact_pages(capture = &page); compact_zone_order(capture = capture); So let's remove the unnecessary check, which should also make Smatch happy.
