    This is a warning about attempting to allocate more than
    KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE memory. The request originates from userspace, and if
    the request is too big, the kernel is free to deny its allocation. In
    this patch, the failed allocation attempt is silenced with
    __GFP_NOWARN.
    
    Fixes: c0c77d8f
    
     ("xsk: add user memory registration support sockopt")
