[PATCH for 4.9 35/39] xfs: remove kmem_zalloc_greedy

Show all headers | View raw

From: "Darrick J. Wong" <darrick.wong@oracle.com>

[ Upstream commit 08b005f1333154ae5b404ca28766e0ffb9f1c150 ]

The sole remaining caller of kmem_zalloc_greedy is bulkstat, which uses
it to grab 1-4 pages for staging of inobt records.  The infinite loop in
the greedy allocation function is causing hangs[1] in generic/269, so
just get rid of the greedy allocator in favor of kmem_zalloc_large.
This makes bulkstat somewhat more likely to ENOMEM if there's really no
pages to spare, but eliminates a source of hangs.
