Subject: [PATCH] ext4: drop ext4_kvmalloc()
Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2020 10:50:31 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200116155031.266620-1-tytso@mit.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200116151239.GA253859@mit.edu>

As Jan pointed out[1], as of commit 81378da64de ("jbd2: mark the
transaction context with the scope GFP_NOFS context") we use
memalloc_nofs_{save,restore}() while a jbd2 handle is active.  So
ext4_kvmalloc() so we can call allocate using GFP_NOFS is no longer
necessary.
