Mel Gorman 94b3334cbe mm, page_alloc: fix a division by zero error when boosting watermarks v2
Yury Norov reported that an arm64 KVM instance could not boot since
after v5.0-rc1 and could addressed by reverting the patches

  1c30844d2d ("mm: reclaim small amounts of memory when an external
  73444bc4d8 ("mm, page_alloc: do not wake kswapd with zone lock held")

The problem is that a division by zero error is possible if boosting
occurs very early in boot if the system has very little memory.  This
patch avoids the division by zero error.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
