Re: [PATCH 11/13] s390/qdio_setup: Use kzalloc() for the storage list

[sashiko-bot@kernel.org]

> __qdio_allocate_qs() allocates the storage list information block of a
> queue.
> 
> This memory can be allocated with kmalloc() as there's nothing special
> about it to go directly to the page allocator.
> 
> kmalloc() provides a better API that does not require ugly casts and
> kfree() does not need to know the size of the freed object.
> 
> Performance difference between kmalloc() and __get_free_pages() is not
> measurable as both allocators take an object/page from a per-CPU list for
> fast path allocations.
> 
> For the slow path the performance is anyway determined by the amount of
> reclaim involved rather than by what allocator is used.
> 
> Replace use of __get_free_page() with kzalloc() and free_page() with
> kfree().
