Thanks, I wasn't aware of the old discussion. If user-space can
tolerate, than it's fine.

Would you mind updating the comment above the changed line? It talks
about not allocating memory in atomic context, so migrate_disable()
would solve this. Just mention that it can't block CPU hotplug events
either and user-space can handle spurious errors.

With that:
