I only see where David says to implement vmalloc_node_gfp() and the talk was about if that makes sense from a style perspective and then dies. Anyway, this only seems to affect ptlrpc_alloc_rqbd() since I think that's the only place which calls OBD_CPT_ALLOC_PTR(). The rest can use __vmalloc(). regards, dan carpenter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
