brd: re-enable __GFP_HIGHMEM in brd_insert_page() (f6b50160) · Commits · 戴 / test

__GFP_HIGHMEM is disabled if dax is enabled on brd, however dax support for brd has been removed since commit ( "brd: remove dax support"), so restore __GFP_HIGHMEM in brd_insert_page(). Also remove the no longer applicable comments about DAX and highmem. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: ("brd: remove dax support") Signed-off-by:
