[v5 13/15] mm: stop zeroing memory during allocation in vmemmap

From: Pavel Tatashin
Date: Thu Aug 03 2017 - 17:28:38 EST


Replace allocators in sprase-vmemmap to use the non-zeroing version. So,
we will get the performance improvement by zeroing the memory in parallel
when struct pages are zeroed.
