Sure, I understand that.

The kzalloc() in array_map_alloc() is however with __GFP_NOWARN flag already.
The warning only triggers in mm if:

   WARN_ON_ONCE(!(gfp_mask & __GFP_NOWARN));

Your test case is using ca.map_type = 1, which is BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH. So on
update you're triggering the kmalloc() in htab_map_update_elem().

I'm just asking about the added change in array map.

Thanks,
Daniel
