Subject: [PATCH 5/6] block: use GFP_NOIO instead of __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM
Date: Wed,  9 May 2018 09:54:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180509075408.16388-6-hch@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180509075408.16388-1-hch@lst.de>

We just can't do I/O when doing block layer requests allocations,
so use GFP_NOIO instead of the even more limited __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM.
