As of ce91f6ee5b ("mm: kvmalloc does not fallback to vmalloc for
incompatible gfp flags") we can simplify the caller and trust kvzalloc()
to just do the right thing. For the case of the GFP_ATOMIC context, we
can drop the __GFP_NORETRY flag for obvious reasons, and for the
__GFP_NOWARN case, however, it is changed such that the caller passes the
flag instead of making bucket_table_alloc() handle it.
This slightly changes the gfp flags passed on to nested_table_alloc() as
it will now also use GFP_ATOMIC | __GFP_NOWARN. However, I consider this
a positive consequence as for the same reasons we want nowarn semantics in
bucket_table_alloc().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
