Hi, my RPI-B has been stuck in vm_reserv_reclaim_contig() due to a bug within that function. I can reproduce that easily on my two-core pandaboard when I limit all memory in system to 128MiB and run "make -j16 kernel-toolchain". It happens in few seconds. The patch should be self-explanatory. The problem is that there is a free page found in reservation which does not fulfill alignment requirement, thus next free page should be looked for. However, due to the bug, the same free page is found out again and again. The patch takes into account that shift by m on n-bit arch has an undefined behaviour if m >= n. Svatopluk Kraus
