> Subject: [PATCH] gpu/drm/ttm: Pass GFP flags in order to avoid deadlock.
>
> Commit 7dc19d5a "drivers: convert shrinkers to new count/scan API" added
> deadlock warnings that ttm_page_pool_free() and ttm_dma_page_pool_free()
> are currently doing GFP_KERNEL allocation.
>
> But these functions did not get updated to receive gfp_t argument.
> This patch explicitly passes sc->gfp_mask or GFP_KERNEL to these functions,
> and removes the deadlock warning.
