Re: [RFC][PATCH v3 12/22] mm, mn10300: add gfp flags variant ofpte allocations

From: Prasad Joshi
Date: Fri Mar 18 2011 - 16:00:14 EST



- Added __pte_alloc_one_kernel to allocate page using specified GFP flag

- Changed pte_alloc_one_kernel to call __pte_alloc_one_kernel using
GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_REPEAT allocation flags

- Helps in fixing the Bug 30702
