Subject: [PATCH 1/2] mm, memcg: Fix corruption on 64-bit divisor in memory.high throttling
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2020 18:02:54 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <80780887060514967d414b3cd91f9a316a16ab98.1584036142.git.chris@chrisdown.name> (raw)

0e4b01df8659 had a bunch of fixups to use the right division method.
However, it seems that after all that it still wasn't right -- div_u64
takes a 32-bit divisor.

The headroom is still large (2^32 pages), so on mundane systems you
won't hit this, but this should definitely be fixed.

Fixes: 0e4b01df8659 ("mm, memcg: throttle allocators when failing reclaim over memory.high")
