Subject: [RFC][PATCH v2 05/23] (frv) __vmalloc: add gfp flags variant of pte and pmd allocation
Date: Mon, 14 Mar 2011 17:35:56 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTinMtOpFe4z6JKYRPbTEr0FR-iR0xgRjB+jnq=ME@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

__vmalloc: propagating GFP allocation flag.

- adds functions to allow caller to pass the GFP flag for memory allocation
- helps in fixing the Bug 30702 (__vmalloc(GFP_NOFS) can callback
		  file system evict_inode).
