Subject: [PATCH v2] net/fq_impl: Switch to kvmalloc() for memory allocation
Date:   Tue,  5 Nov 2019 16:57:50 +0100

The FQ implementation used by mac80211 allocates memory using kmalloc(),
which can fail; and Johannes reported that this actually happens in
practice.

To avoid this, switch the allocation to kvmalloc() instead; this also
brings fq_impl in line with all the FQ qdiscs.

Fixes: 557fc4a09803 ("fq: add fair queuing framework")
