The source static analysis tool gave the following advice: ./fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_dir2.c:382:15-22: WARNING opportunity for kmemdup → 382 args->value = kmalloc(len, 383 GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOLOCKDEP | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL); 384 if (!args->value) 385 return -ENOMEM; 386 → 387 memcpy(args->value, name, len); 388 args->valuelen = len; 389 return -EEXIST; Replacing kmalloc() + memcpy() with kmemdump() doesn't change semantics. Original code works without fault, so this is not a bug fix but proposed improvement.
