tcp: md5: do not use alloc_percpu() percpu tcp_md5sig_pool contains memory blobs that ultimately go through sg_set_buf(). -> sg_set_page(sg, virt_to_page(buf), buflen, offset_in_page(buf)); This requires that whole area is in a physically contiguous portion of memory. And that @buf is not backed by vmalloc(). Given that alloc_percpu() can use vmalloc() areas, this does not fit the requirements. Replace alloc_percpu() by a static DEFINE_PER_CPU() as tcp_md5sig_pool is small anyway, there is no gain to dynamically allocate it.
