Re: [RFC][PATCH v3 21/22] mm, arm: add gfp flags variant of pmdand pte allocations
From: Prasad Joshi
Date: Fri Mar 18 2011 - 16:08:53 EST
- Added __pmd_alloc_one, which is same as pmd_alloc_one, but has extra parameter to specify the allocation flag
- Added __pte_alloc_one_kernel to allocate page using specified GFP flag
- Changed pte_alloc_one_kernel to call __pte_alloc_one_kernel newly added function using GFP_KERNEL allocation flag
- Helps in fixing the Bug 30702
