From: liuyuntao <liuyuntao10@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 5bd4f20de8acad37dbb3154feb34dbc36d506c02 ] When kmem_cache_zalloc in virtio_gpu_get_vbuf fails, it will return an error code. But none of its callers checks this error code, and a core dump will take place. Considering many of its callers can't handle such error, I add a __GFP_NOFAIL flag when calling kmem_cache_zalloc to make sure it won't fail, and delete those unused error handlings. Fixes: dc5698e80cf724 ("Add virtio gpu driver.")
