Linus Torvalds writes: (Summary) It basically says "this function is garbage, so let me
warn about the fact that I'm a moron".
And the *ONLY* thing that warning has ever caused is just stupid code that
does
if (flags == GFP_KERNEL)
.. All the code
that modifies the gfp_flags with the intention of falling back on vmalloc()
is just wrong, since we're not falling back on vmalloc any more.
- otherwise, we do what we used to do (except now the warning is gone,
because we already handled the case it warned about).
