Description
The memory allocations done in the kernel rbd client
use variously GFP_KERNEL, GFP_IO, and GFP_ATOMIC.
I'm not entirely sure, but I don't think the GFP_ATOMIC
calls are needed.
I think there is at least one GFP_KERNEL call that ought
to be GFP_NOIO.
In any case, these need a closer look.
