    Bart Van Assche authored
    commit 327ea4ad upstream.
    
    Avoid that complaints similar to the following appear in the kernel log
    if the number of zones is sufficiently large:
    
      fio: page allocation failure: order:9, mode:0x140c0c0(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_COMP|__GFP_ZERO), nodemask=(null)
