Merge branch 'bpf-use-vrealloc-in-bpf_patch_insn_data'
Eduard Zingerman says: ==================== bpf: use vrealloc() in bpf_patch_insn_data() Function bpf_patch_insn_data() uses vzalloc/vfree pair to allocate memory for updated insn_aux_data. These operations are expensive for big programs where a lot of rewrites happen, e.g. for pyperf180 test case. The pair can be replaced with a call to vrealloc in order to reduce the number of actual memory allocations.
