Unconditionally calling radix_tree_preload_end() results in a OOPS message as the preload is only conditionally called for gfpflags_allow_blocking(). [ 20.267323] BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: fio/416 [ 20.267837] caller is brd_insert_page.part.0+0xbe/0x190 [brd] [ 20.269436] Call Trace: [ 20.269598] <TASK> [ 20.269742] dump_stack_lvl+0x32/0x50 [ 20.269982] check_preemption_disabled+0xd1/0xe0 [ 20.270289] brd_insert_page.part.0+0xbe/0x190 [brd] [ 20.270664] brd_submit_bio+0x33f/0xf40 [brd] Use radix_tree_maybe_preload() which does preload only if gfpflags_allow_blocking() is true but also takes the lock. Therefore, unconditionally calling radix_tree_preload_end() should not create any issues and the message disappears.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
