Pull btrfs fix from David Sterba: "One patch to fix a crash in io submission path, due to memory allocation errors. In short, the multipage bio work that landed in 5.1 caused larger bios that in turn require larger temporary memory for checksums. The patch is a workaround, we're going to rework the allocation so it does not require the vmalloc fallback. It took a while to identify that it's caused by patches in 5.1 and not a patchset that did some changes in error handling in the code. I've tested it on various memory/cpu combinations, it could hit OOM but does not crash. The timestamp of the patch is less than a day due to updates in the changelog, tests were running meanwhile" * tag 'for-5.1-rc6-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kdave/linux: btrfs: Switch memory allocations in async csum calculation path to kvmalloc
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.
