[PATCH 1/2] lib/raid: use kmalloc() in calibrate_xor_blocks()

["Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)" <rppt@kernel.org>]

The xor benchmark allocates an order 2 (4 pages) scratch buffer that is
used purely as a CPU-only XOR working area.

For such large allocations kmalloc() would fall back to alloc_pages() but
still kmalloc() is a better API as it does not require unnecessary
castings and may provide more debugging possibilities.

Replace __get_free_pages() call with kmalloc().
