Subject: [PATCH net] sunrpc: Use GFP_NOFS to prevent use of
 current->task_frag.

Commit a1231fda7e94 ("SUNRPC: Set memalloc_nofs_save() on all
rpciod/xprtiod jobs") stopped setting sk->sk_allocation explicitly in
favor of using memalloc_nofs_save()/memalloc_nofs_restore() critical
sections.

However, ->sk_allocation isn't used just by the memory allocator.
In particular, sk_page_frag() uses it to figure out if it can return
the page_frag from current or if it has to use the socket one.
With ->sk_allocation set to the default GFP_KERNEL, sk_page_frag() now
returns current->page_frag, which might already be in use in the
current context if the call happens during memory reclaim.

Fix this by setting ->sk_allocation to GFP_NOFS.
Note that we can't just instruct sk_page_frag() to look at
current->flags, because it could generate a cache miss, thus slowing
down the TCP fast path.

This is similar to the problems fixed by the following two commits:
  * cifs: commit dacb5d8875cc ("tcp: fix page frag corruption on page
    fault").
  * nbd: commit 20eb4f29b602 ("net: fix sk_page_frag() recursion from
    memory reclaim").
