If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Janosch Frank commit 45c7ee43a5184ddbff652ee0d2e826f86f1b616b upstream. Diag224 requires a page-aligned 4k buffer to store the name table into. kmalloc does not guarantee page alignment, hence we replace it with __get_free_page for the buffer allocation.
