Jian Wen dd540fe7a6 devlink: use kvzalloc() to allocate devlink instance resources
[ Upstream commit 730fffce4fd2eb7a0be2d0b6cd7e55e9194d76d5 ]

During live migration of a virtual machine, the SR-IOV VF need to be
re-registered. It may fail when the memory is badly fragmented.

The related log is as follows.

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 reStructuredText 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.
