[PATCH 4.4 64/80] udl-kms: handle allocation failure

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 03 2018 - 13:02:58 EST


4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 542bb9788a1f485eb1a2229178f665d8ea166156 upstream.

Allocations larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER are unreliable and they
may fail anytime. This patch fixes the udl kms driver so that when a large
alloactions fails, it tries to do multiple smaller allocations.
