Subject[PATCH] mm: page_alloc: place zone id check before VM_BUG_ON_PAGE check
Date
If the free page and its buddy has different zone id, the current
zone->lock cann't prevent buddy page getting allocated, this could
trigger VM_BUG_ON_PAGE in a very tiny chance:

cpu 0: cpu 1:
hold zone_1 lock
check page and it buddy
PageBuddy(buddy) is true hold zone_2 lock
page_order(buddy) == order is true alloc buddy
trigger VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_count(buddy) != 0)

This patch fixes this issue by placing the zone id check before
the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE check.
