perf/core: Fix impossible ring-buffer sizes warning
commit 528871b456026e6127d95b1b2bd8e3a003dc1614 upstream.
The following commit:
9dff0aa95a32 ("perf/core: Don't WARN() for impossible ring-buffer sizes")
results in perf recording failures with larger mmap areas:
root@skl:/tmp# perf record -g -a
failed to mmap with 12 (Cannot allocate memory)
The root cause is that the following condition is buggy:
if (order_base_2(size) >= MAX_ORDER)
goto fail;
The problem is that @size is in bytes and MAX_ORDER is in pages,
so the right test is:
if (order_base_2(size) >= PAGE_SHIFT+MAX_ORDER)
goto fail;
Fix it.
