From 1041e3f9919999b22c9c2a453aa0d92cd16b76ee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Layton Date: Wed, 19 Oct 2011 15:28:27 -0400 Subject: cifs: keep a reusable kvec array for receives Having to continually allocate a new kvec array is expensive. Allocate one that's big enough, and only reallocate it as needed.
