The patch is meant to be applied to the drbd-9.0 branch where all
development seems to happen.  It also applies cleanly to the
drbd-9.0.25-1 tag.

I'm afraid I cannot reproduce the issue you're seeing with your
DKMS package on v4.19.  Using tag drbd-9.0.25-1 and v4.19.95,
the call to __vmalloc() is correctly patched in drbd_bitmap.c
but the build fails for a different reason (conflicting types
for blkdev_issue_zeroout()).  Doesn't look like 4.19 is well
supported.

If you're unsuccessful debugging the build failure on your own,
maybe you can upload your drbd build directory somewhere so I
can take a look.

Thanks,

Lukas
