Subject: [RFC][PATCH v2 15/23] (score) __vmalloc: add gfp flags variant of pte, pmd, and pud allocation
Date: Mon, 14 Mar 2011 17:58:03 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTi=A=gho5k74oDHYdrWCJYqcn-wr7u0G9N3Eev5P@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

- 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).
