Paul Drynoff 800590f523 [PATCH] slab: kmalloc, kzalloc comments cleanup and fix
- Move comments for kmalloc to right place, currently it near __do_kmalloc

- Comments for kzalloc

- More detailed comments for kmalloc

- Appearance of "kmalloc" and "kzalloc" man pages after "make mandocs"

/**
* kmalloc - allocate memory
* @size: how many bytes of memory are required.
* @flags: the type of memory to allocate.
*
* kmalloc is the normal method of allocating memory
* in the kernel.
*
* The @flags argument may be one of:
*
* %GFP_USER - Allocate memory on behalf of user. May sleep.
*
* %GFP_KERNEL - Allocate normal kernel ram. May sleep.
*
* %GFP_ATOMIC - Allocation will not sleep.
* For example, use this inside interrupt handlers.
*
* %GFP_HIGHUSER - Allocate pages from high memory.
*
* %GFP_NOIO - Do not do any I/O at all while trying to get memory.
*
* %GFP_NOFS - Do not make any fs calls while trying to get memory.
*
* Also it is possible to set different flags by OR'ing
* in one or more of the following additional @flags:
*
* %__GFP_COLD - Request cache-cold pages instead of
* trying to return cache-warm pages.
*
* %__GFP_DMA - Request memory from the DMA-capable zone.
*
* %__GFP_HIGH - This allocation has high priority and may use emergency pools.
*
* %__GFP_HIGHMEM - Allocated memory may be from highmem.
*
* %__GFP_NOFAIL - Indicate that this allocation is in no way allowed to fail
* (think twice before using).
*
* %__GFP_NORETRY - If memory is not immediately available,
* then give up at once.
*
* %__GFP_NOWARN - If allocation fails, don't issue any warnings.
*
* %__GFP_REPEAT - If allocation fails initially, try once more before failing.
