From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 6c3efbe77bc78bf49db851aec7f385be475afca6 ] The ucode chunk might be relatively large and the allocation with kmalloc() may fail occasionally. Since the data isn't DMA-transferred but by manual loops, we can use vmalloc instead of kmalloc. For a better performance, though, kvmalloc() would be the best choice in such a case, so let's replace with it.
