Problem statement: During the system boot time, an application request
for the bulk volume of cleared range bias memory when the clear_avail
is zero, we dont fallback into normal allocation method as we had an
unnecessary clear_avail check which prevents the fallback method leads
to fb allocation failure following system goes into unresponsive state.
Solution: Remove the unnecessary clear_avail check in the range bias
allocation function.
v2: add a kunit for this corner case (Daniel Vetter)

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 reStructuredText 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.
