Subject: Re: [RFC][PATCH v3 02/22] mm, xtensa: add gfp flags variant of pte
 allocations


- Added __pte_alloc_one_kernel() function which is similar to
  pte_alloc_one_kernel(), but accepts an additional argument to allow caller
  to specify the allocation flag. The function pte_alloc_one_kernel() is
  changed to call __pte_alloc_one_kernel().

- changes help in fixing the Bug 30702
