[PATCH 2/2] fix kfifo_alloc() and kfifo_init()

From: stefani
Date: Tue Jan 08 2013 - 16:38:19 EST


From: Stefani Seibold <stefani@xxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch fix the kfifo_alloc() and kfifo_init() to alloc at least the
requested number of elements. Since the kfifo operates on power of 2 the
request size will be rounded up to the next power of two.
