We are likely not on the same page here. Are you talking about the
original proposal in this thread (aka a new flag) or a way to reuse
existing gfp space (http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200813075027.GD9477@dhcp22.suse.cz)
with a modification that would both silence the lockdep and keep the
existing NOWAIT semantic?
Sorry bear with me but I am getting lost in this thread.
