Subject: [PATCH v2] mm: fix unexpected changes to {failslab|fail_page_alloc}.attr
When we specify __GFP_NOWARN, we only expect that no warnings
will be issued for current caller. But in the __should_failslab()
and __should_fail_alloc_page(), the local GFP flags alter the
global {failslab|fail_page_alloc}.attr, which is persistent and
shared by all tasks. This is not what we expected, let's fix it.
Cc: stable@...r.kernel.org
Fixes: 3f913fc5f974 ("mm: fix missing handler for __GFP_NOWARN")
Reported-by: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@...gle.com>

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20221107033109.59709-1-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/
Changelog in v1 -> v2:
- add comment for __should_failslab() and __should_fail_alloc_page()
(suggested by Jason)
