[PATCH 5.5 143/367] dm crypt: fix GFP flags passed to skcipher_request_alloc()

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

 



From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 9402e959014a18b4ebf7558733076875808dd66c upstream.

GFP_KERNEL is not supposed to be or'd with GFP_NOFS (the result is
equivalent to GFP_KERNEL). Also, we use GFP_NOIO instead of GFP_NOFS
because we don't want any I/O being submitted in the direct reclaim
path.
