[PATCH 3.16 082/178] libceph: force GFP_NOIO for socket allocations

[Ben Hutchings]

3.16.46-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ilya Dryomov <idryomov@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 633ee407b9d15a75ac9740ba9d3338815e1fcb95 upstream.

sock_alloc_inode() allocates socket+inode and socket_wq with
GFP_KERNEL, which is not allowed on the writeback path:
