[No upstream commit because this fixes a bug in a backport.]
Before upstream commit 59bb47985c1d ("mm, sl[aou]b: guarantee natural
alignment for kmalloc(power-of-two)") which went into v5.4, kmalloc did
*not* always guarantee that PAGE_SIZE allocations are PAGE_SIZE-aligned.
Upstream commit 2efc459d06f1 ("sysfs: Add sysfs_emit and sysfs_emit_at
to format sysfs output") added two WARN()s that trigger when PAGE_SIZE
allocations are not PAGE_SIZE-aligned. This was backported to old
kernels that don't guarantee PAGE_SIZE alignment.
Commit 10ddfb495232 ("fs: sysfs_emit: Remove PAGE_SIZE alignment check")
in 4.19.y, and its equivalent in 4.14.y and 4.9.y, tried to fix this
bug. However, only it handled sysfs_emit(), not sysfs_emit_at().
Fix it in sysfs_emit_at() too.
A reproducer is to build the kernel with the following options:
CONFIG_SLUB=y
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON=y
CONFIG_PM=y
CONFIG_SUSPEND=y
CONFIG_PM_WAKELOCKS=y
Then run:
echo foo > /sys/power/wake_lock && cat /sys/power/wake_lock

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
