Tetsuo Handa 2e517d6816 lockdep: fix fs_reclaim warning
Dave Jones reported fs_reclaim lockdep warnings.

  ============================================
  WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
  4.15.0-rc9-backup-debug+ #1 Not tainted
  --------------------------------------------
  sshd/24800 is trying to acquire lock:
   (fs_reclaim){+.+.}, at: [<0000000084f438c2>] fs_reclaim_acquire.part.102+0x5/0x30

  but task is already holding lock:
   (fs_reclaim){+.+.}, at: [<0000000084f438c2>] fs_reclaim_acquire.part.102+0x5/0x30

  other info that might help us debug this:
   Possible unsafe locking scenario:

         CPU0
         ----
    lock(fs_reclaim);
    lock(fs_reclaim);

   *** DEADLOCK ***

   May be due to missing lock nesting notation

This warning is caused by commit d92a8cfcb3 ("locking/lockdep:
Rework FS_RECLAIM annotation") which replaced the use of
lockdep_{set,clear}_current_reclaim_state() in __perform_reclaim()
and lockdep_trace_alloc() in slab_pre_alloc_hook() with
fs_reclaim_acquire()/ fs_reclaim_release().

Since __kmalloc_reserve() from __alloc_skb() adds __GFP_NOMEMALLOC |
__GFP_NOWARN to gfp_mask, and all reclaim path simply propagates
__GFP_NOMEMALLOC, fs_reclaim_acquire() in slab_pre_alloc_hook() is
trying to grab the 'fake' lock again when __perform_reclaim() already
grabbed the 'fake' lock.

The

  /* this guy won't enter reclaim */
  if ((current->flags & PF_MEMALLOC) && !(gfp_mask & __GFP_NOMEMALLOC))
          return false;

test which causes slab_pre_alloc_hook() to try to grab the 'fake' lock
was added by commit cf40bd16fd ("lockdep: annotate reclaim context
(__GFP_NOFS)").  But that test is outdated because PF_MEMALLOC thread
won't enter reclaim regardless of __GFP_NOMEMALLOC after commit
341ce06f69 ("page allocator: calculate the alloc_flags for allocation
only once") added the PF_MEMALLOC safeguard (

  /* Avoid recursion of direct reclaim */
  if (p->flags & PF_MEMALLOC)
          goto nopage;

in __alloc_pages_slowpath()).

Thus, let's fix outdated test by removing __GFP_NOMEMALLOC test and
allow __need_fs_reclaim() to return false.

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
