Subject: mm: shrinker: use kvzalloc_node() from expand_one_shrinker_info()
Date: Wed, 3 Jan 2024 10:52:22 +0900
syzbot is reporting uninit-value at shrinker_alloc(), for commit
307bececcd12 ("mm: shrinker: add a secondary array for
shrinker_info::{map, nr_deferred}") which assumed that the ->unit was
allocated with __GFP_ZERO forgot to replace kvmalloc_node() in
expand_one_shrinker_info() with kvzalloc_node().
