xfs: replace KM_LARGE with explicit vmalloc use
We use the KM_LARGE flag to make kmem_alloc and friends use vmalloc if necessary. As we only need this for a few boot/mount time allocations just switch to explicit vmalloc calls there. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>
