From dbd3f825128d8c74572c2e66f5d3828ccbfe816c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)" Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2026 13:55:58 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] ACPI: NVS: replace __get_free_page() with kmalloc() suspend_nvs_alloc() allocates shadow pages for saving and restoring ACPI Non-Volatile Storage regions across suspend/resume. These buffers can be allocated with kmalloc() as there's nothing special about them to go directly to the page allocator. kmalloc() provides a better API that does not require ugly casts and kfree() does not need to know the size of the freed object. Performance difference between kmalloc() and __get_free_pages() is not measurable as both allocators take an object/page from a per-CPU list for fast path allocations. For the slow path the performance is anyway determined by the amount of reclaim involved rather than by what allocator is used. Replace use of __get_free_page() with kmalloc() and free_page() with kfree().
