[PATCH] mm: vmalloc - Report more vmalloc failures

From: Joe Perches
Date: Tue Aug 30 2011 - 21:44:41 EST


Some vmalloc failure paths do not report OOM conditions.

Add warn_alloc_failed, which also does a dump_stack,
to those failure paths.

This allows more site specific vmalloc failure
logging message printks to be removed.
