These two patches are supposed to "fix" failed order-4 memory allocations which have been observed when reading /proc/stat. The problem has been observed on s390 as well as on x86. To address the problem change the seq_file memory allocations to fallback to use vmalloc, so that allocations also work if memory is fragmented. This approach seems to be simpler and less intrusive than changing /proc/stat to use an interator. Also it "fixes" other users as well, which use seq_file's single_open() interface. This patch (of 2): Use seq_file's single_open_size() to preallocate a buffer that is large enough to hold the whole output, instead of open coding it. Also calculate the requested size using the number of online cpus instead of possible cpus, since the size of the output only depends on the number of online cpus.
