Subject: [PATCH] iwlwifi: dbg_ini: use vzalloc to allocate dumping memory regions
Git-commit: 6abe1e2e39048ce26cbad276841b9b1b2a7e627a
Patch-mainline: v5.5-rc1
References: jsc#SLE-13430

During dump flow, the driver allocates spaces to store the memory
regions that will be included in the dump. These regions can be very
large so in order to avoid allocation failure, use vzalloc instead.
The kmalloc uses GFP_KERNEL and the driver does not make any use of the
fact that the memory is contiguous so the same functionality is
maintained.
