dm thin: allocate the cell_sort_array dynamically
Given the pool's cell_sort_array holds 8192 pointers it triggers an order 5 allocation via kmalloc. This order 5 allocation is prone to failure as system memory gets more fragmented over time. Fix this by allocating the cell_sort_array using vmalloc. Signed-off-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
