	Please remove this pr_err(), kmalloc() will complain already.

You should now track all "return 0;" done in this function to make sure
no memory leak is added by your patch.

Always?
I know there's a trace option, but is it always on?

Yes, unless caller added ___GFP_NOWARN in gfp :

ptr = kmalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL | ___GFP_NOWARN);

Isn't that true only for slub?

Do you know where this get emitted?
I looked cursorily but I don't see it.

nope, this is page allocation, so common to slab/slub/...

This is a bit beyond this thread

Look at mm/page_alloc.c

void warn_alloc_failed(gfp_t gfp_mask, int order, const char *fmt, ...)

I think this is fine and should be kept until
some general agreement is made that OOM messages
should be removed generically.

If these are really superfluous, which I doubt a
little because these are emitted at different
KERN_<LEVEL>, (the generic one emits at KERN_WARNING),
there are _thousands_ of these OOM errors in drivers/
alone that could be removed.

$ grep -rP --include=*.[ch] \
	"(printk|\b[a-z]+_\w+)\s*\(.*\".*(alloc|mem)" drivers | \
  wc -l
5147

call it 50% false positive, it's still a lot.

I think one more won't hurt for awhile.
