kzalloc() uses page allocator when size is larger than KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE, so the intention of commitab101c553b("neighbour: use kvzalloc()/kvfree()") can be achieved by using kzalloc(). When using GFP_ATOMIC, kvzalloc() only tries the kmalloc path, since the vmalloc path does not support the flag. In this case, kvzalloc() is equivalent to kzalloc() in that neither try the vmalloc path, so this replacement brings no functional change. This is primarily a cleanup change, as the original code functions correctly. This patch replaces kvzalloc() introduced by commit41b3caa7c0("neighbour: Add hlist_node to struct neighbour"), which is called in the same context and with the same gfp flag as the aforementioned commitab101c553b("neighbour: use kvzalloc()/kvfree()").

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.
