[PATCH v4 1/6] mm/page_isolation: don't dump_page(NULL) in set_migratetype_isolate()

From: David Hildenbrand <hidden>
Date: 2020-08-04 19:42:06
Also in: linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: memory management, memory management - page allocator, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Vlastimil Babka, Linus Torvalds

Right now, if we have two isolations racing, we might trigger the
WARN_ON_ONCE() and to dump_page(NULL), dereferencing NULL. Let's just
return directly.

In the future, we might want to report -EAGAIN to the caller instead, as
this could indicate a temporary isolation failure only.
