I though also about it, but decided to left this change to another patch
as the change can be substantial and could open another discussion.
I am not sure what you mean by 'caller' but it could be even external
user of the API:
1. alloc data for ref_tracker_dir_stats.
2. take locks, if necessary.
3. gather stats (ref_tracker_get_stats) atomically.
4. release taken locks.
5. print stats.
This way, allocation and printing would happen outside locks.

The problem is that in my scenario it can be called under spinlock, this
is why I want almost everywhere non-sleeping allocations.

My approach was to avoid allocations if the system is short on memory -
better to keep it alive, and we still get the report, just without
stacktraces, one can print full stats later (for example via sysfs, or
trigger to dmesg) - big chances that the bug will be still there.
If you think that is no-go, alternatives I see:
- go back to GFP_ATOMIC,
- print stack directly, without using stack_depot_snprint,
- pre-allocate buffer.
