From: Michal Hocko Date: Mon, 8 May 2017 22:57:34 +0000 (-0700) Subject: drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c: use kvmalloc rather than opencoded variant X-Git-Tag: v4.12-rc1~67^2~54 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d224e938189771dbd1e3b68ee8603a949bee76bb;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-exynos.git drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c: use kvmalloc rather than opencoded variant copy_params uses kmalloc with vmalloc fallback. We already have a helper for that - kvmalloc. This caller requires GFP_NOIO semantic so it hasn't been converted with many others by previous patches. All we need to achieve this semantic is to use the scope memalloc_noio_{save,restore} around kvmalloc.
