We can disable debug_pagealloc processing even if the code is complied
with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC. This patch changes the code to query
whether it is enabled or not in runtime.

Hmm, this might be a good case for a line longer than 80 chars....

As an alternative revert the logic and return early:


	if (!debug_pagealloc_enabled())
		return get_freepointer(s, object);
	probe_kernel_read(&p, (void **)(object + s->offset), sizeof(p));
	return p;

?

+	} else
+		p = get_freepointer(s, object);
+
 	return p;
 }
