[ Upstream commit 4508943794efdd94171549c0bd52810e2f4ad9fe ]
Since
sysctl: pass kernel pointers to ->proc_handler
we have been pre-allocating a buffer to copy the data from the proc
handlers into, and then copying that to userspace. The problem is this
just blindly kzalloc()'s the buffer size passed in from the read, which in
the case of our 'cat' binary was 64kib. Order-4 allocations are not
awesome, and since we can potentially allocate up to our maximum order, so
use kvzalloc for these buffers.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
