Re: [PATCH V3] IB/mlx4: Use vmalloc for WR buffers when needed

Hi Wengang,

I was going through your patch set here, and it seems that you missed changing kfree to kvfree in mlx4_ib_destroy_srq().  In the current code if the srq wrid is allocated using vmalloc, then on cleanup we will use kfree, which is a bug.

Thanks,
-matt
