GFS2: use __vmalloc GFP_NOFS for fs-related allocations.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
leaf_dealloc uses vzalloc as a fallback to kzalloc(GFP_NOFS), so
it clearly does not want any shrinker activity within the fs itself.
convert vzalloc into __vmalloc(GFP_NOFS|__GFP_ZERO) to better achieve
this goal.
