From 087897e36982ef8536dc9c8baed159a31517b5e6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christof Schmitt Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2011 19:54:41 +0100 Subject: [SCSI] zfcp: Introduce new kmem_cache for FC request and response data A data buffer that is passed to the hardware must not cross a page boundary. zfcp uses a series of kmem_caches to align the data to not cross a page boundary. Introduce a new kmem_cache for the FC requests sent from the zfcp driver and use it for the ELS ADISC data. The goal is to migrate to the FC kmem_cache in later patches and remove the request specific kmem_caches.
