Subject: mlx4_core: Allow large mlx4_buddy bitmaps
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=89dd86db78e0;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

mlx4_core: Allow large mlx4_buddy bitmaps

mlx4_buddy_init uses kmalloc() to allocate bitmaps, which fails when
the required size is beyond the max supported value (or when memory is
too fragmented to handle a huge allocation).  Extend this to use use
vmalloc() if kmalloc() fails, and take that into account when freeing
the bitmaps as well.

This fixes a driver load failure when log num mtt is 26 or higher, and
is a step in the direction of allowing to register huge amounts of
memory on large memory systems.
