Isn't that "if possible" bogus. I thought these two bits _had_ to be grouped together, at least with the current code.
What happened to the comment that Joel added to gpl.h:
+/* Allocation type modifiers, these are required to be adjacent + * __GPF_USER: Allocation for user page or a buffer page + * __GFP_KERNRCLM: Short-lived or reclaimable kernel allocation + * Both bits off: Kernel non-reclaimable or very hard to reclaim + * RCLM_SHIFT (defined elsewhere) depends on the location of these bits
