[ Upstream commit e7c7fbb9a8574ebd89cc05db49d806c7476863ad ] Array of group descriptor block buffers can get rather large. In theory in can reach 1MB for perfectly valid filesystem and even more for maliciously crafted ones. Use kvmalloc() to allocate the array to avoid straining memory allocator with large order allocations unnecessarily.

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.
