Subject: [PATCH 4.4 09/56] block,blkcg: use __GFP_NOWARN for best-effort allocations in blkcg

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tejun Heo <tj@...nel.org>

commit e00f4f4d0ff7e13b9115428a245b49108d625f09 upstream.

blkcg allocates some per-cgroup data structures with GFP_NOWAIT and
when that fails falls back to operations which aren't specific to the
cgroup.  Occassional failures are expected under pressure and falling
back to non-cgroup operation is the right thing to do.

Unfortunately, I forgot to add __GFP_NOWARN to these allocations and
these expected failures end up creating a lot of noise.  Add
__GFP_NOWARN.
