Dave Chinner ae687e58b3 xfs: use NOIO contexts for vm_map_ram
When we map pages in the buffer cache, we can do so in GFP_NOFS
contexts. However, the vmap interfaces do not provide any method of
communicating this information to memory reclaim, and hence we get
lockdep complaining about it regularly and occassionally see hangs
that may be vmap related reclaim deadlocks. We can also see these
same problems from anywhere where we use vmalloc for a large buffer
(e.g. attribute code) inside a transaction context.

A typical lockdep report shows up as a reclaim state warning like so:

Now, we can't completely remove these traces - mainly because
vm_map_ram() will do GFP_KERNEL allocation and that generates the
above warning before we get into the reclaim code, but we can turn
them all into false positive warnings.

To do that, use the method that DM and other IO context code uses to
avoid this problem: there is a process flag to tell memory reclaim
not to do IO that we can set appropriately. That prevents GFP_KERNEL
context reclaim being done from deep inside the vmalloc code in
places we can't directly pass a GFP_NOFS context to. That interface
has a pair of wrapper functions: memalloc_noio_save() and
memalloc_noio_restore().

Adding them around vm_map_ram and the vzalloc call in
kmem_alloc_large() will prevent deadlocks and most lockdep reports
for this issue. Also, convert the vzalloc() call in
kmem_alloc_large() to use __vmalloc() so that we can pass the
correct gfp context to the data page allocation routine inside
__vmalloc() so that it is clear that GFP_NOFS context is important
to this vmalloc call.
