From ef2ad80c7d255ed0449eda947c2d700635b7e0f5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Lameter Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2007 04:03:21 -0700 Subject: Slab allocators: consolidate code for krealloc in mm/util.c The size of a kmalloc object is readily available via ksize(). ksize is provided by all allocators and thus we can implement krealloc in a generic way. Implement krealloc in mm/util.c and drop slab specific implementations of krealloc.
