From: Jan Dakinevich <jan.dakinev...@virtuozzo.com> The allocator ib_alloc_device() is used to allocate both ib_device and device specific instance. This allocations sometimes quite big and takes tens KiB, causing high page orders.
Meanwhile, the memory is not intended for DMA and doesn't require to be physically contiguous. https://jira.sw.ru/browse/HCI-129 Signed-off-by: Jan Dakinevich <jan.dakinev...@virtuozzo.com> Rebased to vz8: - Change newly added kfree to kvfree in _ib_alloc_device - Since there is no kvfree_rcu, introduce new ib_device_reclaim function and change kfree_rcu to call_rcu(...)
