xfs: convert kmem_alloc() to kmalloc()
kmem_alloc() is just a thin wrapper around kmalloc() these days. Convert everything to use kmalloc() so we can get rid of the wrapper. Note: the transaction region allocation in xlog_add_to_transaction() can be a high order allocation. Converting it to use kmalloc(__GFP_NOFAIL) results in warnings in the page allocation code being triggered because the mm subsystem does not want us to use __GFP_NOFAIL with high order allocations like we've been doing with the kmem_alloc() wrapper for a couple of decades. Hence this specific case gets converted to xlog_kvmalloc() rather than kmalloc() to avoid this issue. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: "Darrick J.
