[PATCH 033/115] gpu: ion: Stop trying to allocate from an order on first failure

From: John Stultz
Date: Fri Dec 13 2013 - 17:27:06 EST


From: Rebecca Schultz Zavin <rebecca@xxxxxxxxxxx>

With this patch the system heap will only try to allocate from each
order as long as allocations succeed. If it failes to obtain a higher
order allocation, it doesn't retry that order.
