From: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@xxxxxxxxxx>
Slub does not call kmalloc_slab() for sizes > KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE,
instead it falls back to kmalloc_large().
For slab KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE == KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE and it calls
kmalloc_slab() for all allocations relying on NULL return value
for over-sized allocations.
This inconsistency leads to unwanted warnings from kmalloc_slab()
for over-sized allocations for slab. Returning NULL for failed
allocations is the expected behavior.
Make slub and slab code consistent by checking size >
KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE in slab before calling kmalloc_slab().
While we are here also fix the check in kmalloc_slab().
We should check against KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE rather than
KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE. It all kinda worked because for slab the
constants are the same, and slub always checks the size against
KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE before kmalloc_slab().
But if we get there with size > KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE anyhow
bad things will happen. For example, in case of a newly introduced
bug in slub code.
Also move the check in kmalloc_slab() from function entry
to the size > 192 case. This partially compensates for the additional
check in slab code and makes slub code a bit faster
(at least theoretically).
Also drop __GFP_NOWARN in the warning check.
This warning means a bug in slab code itself,
user-passed flags have nothing to do with it.
Nothing of this affects slob.
