[PATCH 04/10] xfs: fallback to vmalloc for large buffers in xfs_getbmap

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner at redhat.com>
xfs_getbmap uses for a large buffer for extents, which is kmalloc'd.
This can fail after the system has been running for some time as it
is a high order allocation. Add a fallback to vmalloc so that it
doesn't require contiguous memory and so won't randomly fail on
files with large extent lists.
