[PATCHv2 1/6] mm/zbud: zbud_alloc() minor param change

From: Dan Streetman
Date: Mon Jun 02 2014 - 18:20:28 EST


Change zbud to store gfp_t flags passed at pool creation to use for
each alloc; this allows the api to be closer to the existing zsmalloc
interface, and the only current zbud user (zswap) uses the same gfp
flags for all allocs. Update zswap to use changed interface.
