Fengguang is running into a warning from the buddy allocator: > swapper/0: page allocation failure: order:9, mode:0x14040c0(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_COMP), nodemask=(null) > CPU: 1 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.17.0-rc1 #262 > Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.10.2-1 04/01/2014 > Call Trace: ... > __kmalloc+0x14b/0x180: ____cache_alloc at mm/slab.c:3127 > stm_register_device+0xf3/0x5c0: stm_register_device at drivers/hwtracing/stm/core.c:695 ... Which is basically a result of the stm class trying to allocate ~512kB for the dummy_stm with its default parameters. There's no reason, however, for it not to be vmalloc()ed instead, which is what this patch does.
