Subject: [25/70] sctp: Pass __GFP_NOWARN to hash table allocation attempts.

2.6.38-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------


From: David S. Miller <davem@...emloft.net>

[ Upstream commit a84b50ceb7d640437d0dc28a2bef0d0de054de89 ]

Like DCCP and other similar pieces of code, there are mechanisms
here to try allocating smaller hash tables if the allocation
fails.  So pass in __GFP_NOWARN like the others do instead of
emitting a scary message.
