FYI, we noticed the below changes on
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mlin/linux.git block-generic-req
commit 86ecb9456ac74ba3996d05ca1b09a7756a31bfd7 ("block: make generic_make_request
handle arbitrarily sized bios")
We found the following new message in kernel log, do you increase vmalloc usage in your
patch?
[ 6.939422] vmap allocation for size 16384 failed: use vmalloc=<size> to increase
size.
Thanks,

[ 6.955278] lguest: could not map switcher pages high
This actually comes from lguest.
Several weeks ago I tried lguest on qemu-kvm-i386 and saw similar problem.
I didn't debug it further, but it's OK if disable CONFIG_SMP.
I just double-checked it with v4.2-rc1(without this patchset)
CONFIG_SMP: see the vmalloc error
!CONFIG_SMP: no problem
Could you confirm?
BTW, it seams "qemu-kvm-i386 guest" as "lguest host" doesn't
work.
Need to run lguest on bare metal.
Thanks.
