[PATCH 2/6] drm: vkms: Alloc the compose frame using vzalloc

From: Igor Matheus Andrade Torrente
Date: Tue Oct 05 2021 - 16:17:32 EST


Currently, the memory to the composition frame is being allocated using
the kzmalloc. This comes with the limitation of maximum size of one
page size(which in the x86_64 is 4Kb and 4MB for default and hugepage
respectively).

Somes test of igt (e.g. kms_plane@pixel-format) uses more than 4MB when
testing some pixel formats like ARGB16161616.

This problem is addessed by allocating the memory using kvzalloc that
circunvents this limitation.
