129: unlikely, refers to "u32 q" in crc32_body
247: crc = crc32_body(crc, p, len, tab);
Also doesn't seem to be very likely.
265:

return crc32_le_generic(crc, p, len,

}
Doesn't seem anything could fail here either.

right here? Shouldn't that be 'return false'?
Thanks,

Just curious, is the free memory low when this happens?

Are you using kmemcheck and kmemleak together?
I don't think update_checksum() is called on the object being allocated
but possibly on an object being freed when kmemleak_scan() is running.
This is generally a safe operation because of the object locks in
kmemleak_scan() but when an error condition just occurred (like kmemleak
not being able to allocate memory), kmemleak gets disabled and
kmemleak_free() no longer passes the information down to update the
object's flags. At this point, the running kmemleak_scan() potentially
reads unmmapped objects.
I need to think a bit more about this. Thanks for reporting.
