[RFC][PATCH v3 21/22] mm, arm: add gfp flags variant of pmd and pte allocations

From: Prasad Joshi <hidden>
Date: 2011-03-18 20:08:49
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: arm port, the rest · Maintainers: Russell King, Linus Torvalds

 - 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
