This one is ok, it's in the non-fs part, so cannot enter via an fs operation.

These two are in "lnet-selftest" that is self-hosted. so also ok.

This is called from ll_inode_permission (the inode ops->permission method), so I imagine this must be GFP_NOFS.

These should live in it's own separate thread so I imagine should be fine.

This is it's own thing, so ok

These are called in IO path, so should be GFP_NOFS, really.
