...cate 256 kilobyte of physical memory contiguously. My system has 16 gigabyte of ram, and had about 4 gb free afterwards when I checked, so it wasn't like there was not enough memory. It was probably just too fragmented to allocate with kmalloc, while vmalloc doesn't require the memory to be physicallly contiguous. ~Maarten

Page tables on nv50 take 48kB, which can be hard to allocate in one piece. Let's use vmalloc.
