Same here. find_or_create_page might return NULL.

Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: Prevent from early transaction abort

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:

[   55.437323] BTRFS info (device hdb1): forced readonly
[   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.
