[PATCH 1/2] xfs: Add __GFP_NORETRY and __GFP_NOWARN to open-coded __GFP_NOFAIL allocations

[Tetsuo Handa]

kmem_alloc(), kmem_zone_alloc() and xfs_buf_allocate_memory() are doing
open-coded __GFP_NOFAIL allocations with warning messages as a canary.
But since small !__GFP_NOFAIL allocations retry forever inside memory
allocator unless TIF_MEMDIE is set, the canary does not help even if
allocations are stalling. Thus, this patch adds __GFP_NORETRY so that
we can know possibility of allocation deadlock.

If a patchset which makes small !__GFP_NOFAIL !__GFP_FS allocations not
retry inside memory allocator is merged, warning messages by
warn_alloc_failed() will dominate warning messages by the canary
because each thread calls warn_alloc_failed() for approximately
every 2 milliseconds. Thus, this patch also adds __GFP_NOWARN so that
we won't flood kernel logs by these open-coded __GFP_NOFAIL allocations.
Next patch compensates for lack of comm name and pid by addding them to
the canary.
