[PATCH] wifi: mac80211: use kvcalloc() for codel vars

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

This is a big array, but it's only used by software and
need not be contiguous in memory. Use kvcalloc() since
it's so big (order 5 allocation).
