Ah yes, sorry missed those, I think then the simplest solution then would be to
simply yank the __GFP_NOWARN specifier at the top of the function and restore
the explicit flag being passed to vm_area_alloc_pages() you added in
c3d77172dfc0.

This whole thing does make me wonder if this function is due a more general
refactor.

Will spin up a v2!
