Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.9 05/35] devlink: use kvzalloc() to allocate devlink instance resources

From: Jian Wen <wenjianhn@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 730fffce4fd2eb7a0be2d0b6cd7e55e9194d76d5 ]

During live migration of a virtual machine, the SR-IOV VF need to be
re-registered. It may fail when the memory is badly fragmented.

The related log is as follows.
