In commit8010d74b99("RDMA/mlx5: Split the WR setup out of mlx5_ib_update_xlt()") the allocation logic was split out of mlx5_ib_update_xlt() and the logic was changed to enable better OOM handling. Sadly this change introduced a miscalculation of the number of entries that were actually allocated when under memory pressure where it can actually become 0 which on s390 lets dma_map_single() fail. It can also lead to corruption of the free pages list when the wrong number of entries is used in the calculation of sg->length which is used as argument for free_pages(). Fix this by using the allocation size instead of misusing get_order(size).

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.
