[RFC 7/8] btrfs: Prevent from early transaction abort
From: mhocko
Date: Wed Aug 05 2015 - 05:52:12 EST
From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx>
Btrfs relies on GFP_NOFS allocation when commiting the transaction but
since "mm: page_alloc: do not lock up GFP_NOFS allocations upon OOM"
those allocations are allowed to fail which can lead to a pre-mature
transaction abort:

[ 55.438815] BTRFS info (device hdb1): delayed_refs has NO entry
Fix this by reintroducing the no-fail behavior of this allocation path
with the explicit __GFP_NOFAIL.
