Subject: mm/compaction: really limit compact_unevictable_allowed to 0 and 1
X-Git-Url: http://git.maquefel.me/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=964b692daf3018ae4b45285c3bcbb2d897cb4b40;p=linux.git

mm/compaction: really limit compact_unevictable_allowed to 0 and 1

The proc file `compact_unevictable_allowed' should allow 0 and 1 only, the
`extra*' attribues have been set properly but without
proc_dointvec_minmax() as the `proc_handler' the limit will not be
enforced.

Use proc_dointvec_minmax() as the `proc_handler' to enfoce the valid
specified range.
