Bluetooth: btrtl: Use kvmalloc for FW allocations
[ Upstream commit 268d3636 ] Currently, kmemdup is applied to the firmware data, and it invokes kmalloc under the hood. The firmware size and patch_length are big (more than PAGE_SIZE), and on some low-end systems (like ASUS E202SA) kmalloc may fail to allocate a contiguous chunk under high memory usage and fragmentation: Bluetooth: hci0: RTL: examining hci_ver=06 hci_rev=000a lmp_ver=06 lmp_subver=8821 Bluetooth: hci0: RTL: rom_version status=0 version=1 Bluetooth: hci0: RTL: loading rtl_bt/rtl8821a_fw.bin kworker/u9:2: page allocation failure: order:4, mode:0x40cc0(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_COMP), nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0 <stack trace follows> As firmware load happens on each resume, Bluetooth will stop working after several iterations, when the kernel fails to allocate an order-4 page. This patch replaces kmemdup with kvmalloc+memcpy. It's not required to have a contiguous chunk here, because it's not mapped to the device directly.
