[PATCH] net/ceph replace ceph_kvmalloc with kvmalloc

[PATCH] net/ceph replace ceph_kvmalloc with kvmalloc

[Marc Koderer]

There is nearly no difference between both implemenations.
ceph_kvmalloc existed before kvmalloc which makes me think it's
a leftover.

Hi Marc,

I'm working on a patch for https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/40481 which
changes ceph_kvmalloc() to properly deal with non-GFP_KERNEL contexts.
We can't switch to kvmalloc() because it doesn't actually fall back to
vmalloc() for GFP_NOFS or GFP_NOIO.

Thanks,
