David Howells 87182759cd afs: Fix order-1 allocation in afs_do_lookup()
afs_do_lookup() will do an order-1 allocation to allocate status records if
there are more than 39 vnodes to stat.

Fix this by allocating an array of {status,callback} records for each vnode
we want to examine using vmalloc() if larger than a page.

This not only gets rid of the order-1 allocation, but makes it easier to
grow beyond 50 records for YFS servers.  It also allows us to move to
{status,callback} tuples for other calls too and makes it easier to lock
across the application of the status and the callback to the vnode.

Fixes: 5cf9dd55a0 ("afs: Prospectively look up extra files when doing a single lookup")

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.
