Subject[PATCH] mm/page_alloc: fix a crash in free_pages_prepare()
Date
On architectures like s390, arch_free_page() could mark the page unused
(set_page_unused()) and any access later would trigger a kernel panic.
Fix it by moving arch_free_page() after all possible accessing calls.

Hardware name: IBM 2964 N96 400 (z/VM 6.4.0)
