sorry, v8 forget removing two lines.

please -v9 instead.

-v8: Linus said: allocation/return is not right, and -1 step tricks make it
	not work as generic resource probe.
     So try to remove the needed_size tricks, and also use __adjust_resource
	for probing instead.
-v9: remove two lines that is supposed to be removed after converting to use
	__adjust_resource

Thanks
