Subject: [PATCH 3/6] EXT4: Remove ENOMEM/congestion_wait() loops.
Indefinite loops waiting for memory allocation are discouraged by
documentation in gfp.h which says the use of __GFP_NOFAIL that it
is definitely preferable to use the flag rather than opencode endless
loop around allocator.
Such loops that use congestion_wait() are particularly unwise as
congestion_wait() is indistinguishable from
schedule_timeout_uninterruptible() in practice - and should be
deprecated.
So this patch changes the two loops in ext4_ext_truncate() to use
__GFP_NOFAIL instead of looping.
As the allocation is multiple layers deeper in the call stack, this
requires passing the EXT4_EX_NOFAIL flag down and handling it in various
places.
Of particular interest is the ext4_journal_start family of calls which
can now have EXT4_EX_NOFAIL 'or'ed in to the 'type'. This could be seen
as a blurring of types. However 'type' is 8 bits, and EXT4_EX_NOFAIL is
a high bit, so it is safe in practice.
jbd2__journal_start() is enhanced so that the gfp_t flags passed are
used for *all* allocations.
