Subject: Re: [RFC][PATCH v3 14/22] mm, microblaze: add gfp flags variant of
 pmd and pte allocations


- Added function __pmd_alloc_one which is same as pmd_alloc_one, but accepts
   an extra argument for gfp_t flag.

- Added __pte_alloc_one_kernel() to allocated zeroed page using
  allocation flag passed as an argument. If the slab allocator is not
  initialized the allocation flag is not passed down the call hierarchy.
  i.e. early_get_page() is not modified.

- pte_alloc_one_kernel calls __pte_alloc_one_kernel using
  GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_REPEAT allocation flag.

- Helps in fixing the Bug 30702
