Subject[PATCH 04/20] ipc: Drop non-RCU allocation
Date
The only users of ipc_alloc() were ipc_rcu_alloc() and the on-heap
sem_io fall-back memory. Better to just open-code these to make things
easier to read.

Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

[manfred@colorfullife.com: Rediff due to inclusion of memset() into
ipc_rcu_alloc().]
