slob: do not pass the SLAB flags as GFP in kmem_cache_create()

5e18e2b8 · Catalin Marinas <[email protected]> · 2008-12-15 13:54:16 -08:00

The kmem_cache_create() function in the slob allocator passes the SLAB
flags as GFP flags to the slob_alloc() function.  The patch changes this
call to pass GFP_KERNEL as the other allocators seem to do.
