Subject: [PATCH] trace : use kvmalloc instead of kmalloc
Date:   Wed, 29 Jul 2020 19:30:32 +0800
Message-Id: <1596022232-14076-1-git-send-email-zhaoyang.huang@unisoc.com>

Precedence: bulk

High order memory stuff within trace could introduce OOM, use kvmalloc instead.

traced_probes invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x140c0c0(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_COMP|__GFP_ZERO), nodemask=(null),  order=2, oom_score_adj=-1
