Subject[PATCH 4.9 11/92] selinux: Add __GFP_NOWARN to allocation at str_read()
Date
4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@i-love.sakura.ne.jp>

commit 4458bba09788e70e8fb39ad003f087cd9dfbd6ac upstream.

syzbot is hitting warning at str_read() [1] because len parameter can
become larger than KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE. We don't need to emit warning for
this case.
