From 15fab63e1e57be9fdb5eec1bbc5916e9825e9acb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthew Wilcox Date: Fri, 5 Apr 2019 14:02:10 -0700 Subject: fs: prevent page refcount overflow in pipe_buf_get Change pipe_buf_get() to return a bool indicating whether it succeeded in raising the refcount of the page (if the thing in the pipe is a page). This removes another mechanism for overflowing the page refcount. All callers converted to handle a failure.
