Subject[PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 21/56] rbd: use GFP_NOIO consistently for request allocations
Date
3.19.8-ckt19 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: David Disseldorp <ddiss@suse.de>

commit 2224d879c7c0f85c14183ef82eb48bd875ceb599 upstream.

As of 5a60e87603c4c533492c515b7f62578189b03c9c, RBD object request
allocations are made via rbd_obj_request_create() with GFP_NOIO.
However, subsequent OSD request allocations in rbd_osd_req_create*()
use GFP_ATOMIC.

With heavy page cache usage (e.g. OSDs running on same host as krbd
client), rbd_osd_req_create() order-1 GFP_ATOMIC allocations have been
observed to fail, where direct reclaim would have allowed GFP_NOIO
allocations to succeed.
