mm/slab: ppc: ubi: kmalloc_slab WARNING / PPC + UBI driver

[Christoph Lameter]

Crap you cannot do PAGE_SIZE allocations with kmalloc_large. Fails when
freeing pages. Need to only do the multiple page allocs with
kmalloc_large.

Subject: seq_file: Use kmalloc_large for page sized allocation

There is no point in using the slab allocation functions for
large page order allocation. Use kmalloc_large().

This fixes the warning about large allocs but it will still cause
large contiguous allocs that could fail because of memory fragmentation.
