Subject: [PATCH] slab: allocate larger cache_cache if order 0 fails
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=07ed76b2a085a31f427c2a912a562627947dc7de;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

[PATCH] slab: allocate larger cache_cache if order 0 fails

kmem_cache_init() incorrectly assumes that the cache_cache object will fit
in an order 0 allocation.  On very large systems, this is not true.  Change
the code to try larger order allocations if order 0 fails.
