From: Jia-Ye Li <jiayeli@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Fix mount failed "Cannot allocate memory". When the memory gets fragmented, kzalloc() might fail to allocate physically contiguous pages for the struct exfat_sb_info (its size is about 34KiB) even the total free memory is enough. Use kvzalloc() to solve this problem.
