[PATCH 2/9] ext4: Remove uses of FGP_NOFS
From: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)
Date: Sun Aug 30 2026 - 00:20:15 EST
Both of these locations are called while a transaction is in progress.
Starting a transaction uses memalloc_nofs_save(), so we are already
prevented from recursing into the filesystem and using GFP_NOFS was
unnecessary.
