Subject: dm ioctl: remove PF_MEMALLOC
X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5023e5cf58e1dae904e2e8b5b9779c33512b75a1;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

dm ioctl: remove PF_MEMALLOC

When allocating memory for the userspace ioctl data, set some
appropriate GPF flags directly instead of using PF_MEMALLOC.
