* gpu: nvgpu: Move kmem_caches to allocatorAlex Waterman2017-02-10
Instead of using a single static kmem_cache for each type of data structure the allocators may want to allocate each allocator now has its own instance of the kmem_cache. This is done so that each GPU driver instance can accurately track how much memory it is using. In order to support this on older kernels a new NVGPU API has been made, nvgpu_kmem_cache_create(struct gk20a *g, size_t size) To handle the possibility that caches cannot be created with the same name. This patch also fixes numerous places where kfree() was wrongly used to free kmem_cache allocs.
