Thanks a lot Martin for your reply. Here is a new patch, which the changes
you suggested.

Generic changes
- Changed crst_table_alloc() to accept a new parameter gfp_t, allocate pages
using the passed allocation flag.

- crst_table_upgrade() calls crst_table_alloc() with GFP_KERNEL.

- page_table_alloc() is also changned to accept a parameter gfp_t and allocate
page using the passed allocation flag.

- vmem_pte_alloc() calls page_table_alloc() with GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_REPEAT

changes for 32 (31) bit architecture (s390)
- Added macros __pud_alloc_one, __pmd_alloc_one which are similar to
pud_alloc_one and pmd_alloc_one respectively, but has an extra argument
for gfp_t.

changes for 64 bit architecture (s390x)
- Added __pud_alloc_one() allow caller to pass the memory allocation flag.
The function passes the allocation flag to crst_table_alloc().

- The function pud_alloc_one() is modified to call __pud_alloc_one() and
pass GFP_KERNEL allocation flag.

- The similar changes are performed for pmd allocations

- pgd_populate_kernel() calls crst_table_alloc() with GFP_KERNEL

- Added marco __pte_alloc_one_kernel() to accept additional argument gfp_t.
This argument is then passed to page_table_alloc() to allocate the page
table entry.

- Modified pte_alloc_one_kernel() to call __pte_alloc_one_kernel() passing
GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_REPEAT allocation flags.

- Modified pte_alloc_one() to call page_table_alloc() with allocation flag
GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_REPEAT

- The changes for both architectures help in fixing Bug 30702
