Subject: [PATCH bpf-next] bpf: use kvmalloc in map_lookup_elem

From: Stanislav Fomichev <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 16 Aug 2021 09:48:32 -0700

Use kvmalloc/kvfree for temporary value when looking up a map.
kmalloc might not be sufficient for percpu maps where the value is big.

Can be reproduced with netcnt test on qemu with "-smp 255".
