It was reported that syzkaller was able to trigger a splat on
devmap percpu allocation due to illegal/unsupported allocation
request size passed to __alloc_percpu():
[ 70.094249] illegal size (32776) or align (8) for percpu allocation
[ 70.094256] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 70.094259] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 3451 at mm/percpu.c:1365 pcpu_alloc+0x96/0x630

This was due to too large max_entries for the map such that we
surpassed the upper limit of PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE. It's fine to
fail naturally here, so switch to __alloc_percpu_gfp() and pass
__GFP_NOWARN instead.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
