[PATCH v4 2/3] mm: Add support for kmem caches in DMA32 zone
From: Nicolas Boichat
Date: Wed Dec 05 2018 - 00:48:57 EST
In some cases (e.g. IOMMU ARMv7s page allocator), we need to allocate
data structures smaller than a page with GFP_DMA32 flag.
This change makes it possible to create a custom cache in DMA32 zone
using kmem_cache_create, then allocate memory using kmem_cache_alloc.
We do not create a DMA32 kmalloc cache array, as there are currently
no users of kmalloc(..., GFP_DMA32). The new test in check_slab_flags
ensures that such calls still fail (as they do before this change).
Fixes: ad67f5a6545f ("arm64: replace ZONE_DMA with ZONE_DMA32")

Changes since v2:
- Clarified commit message
- Add entry in sysfs-kernel-slab to document the new sysfs file
(v3 used the page_frag approach)
