I meant just dropping that patch hunk, not the whole test. Then the test
stays as it is and will keep warning anyone calling kmalloc(GFP_DMA32).
It would also warn anyone calling kmem_cache_alloc(GFP_DMA32) on
SLAB_CACHE_DMA32 cache, but since the gfp can be just dropped, and you
as the only user of this so far will do that, it's fine?
