[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 054/126] bcache: Make sure to pass GFP_WAIT to mempool_alloc()

From: Luis Henriques
Date: Tue Jan 27 2015 - 07:39:55 EST


3.16.7-ckt5 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Kent Overstreet <kmo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit bcf090e0040e30f8409e6a535a01e6473afb096f upstream.

this was very wrong - mempool_alloc() only guarantees success with GFP_WAIT.
bcache uses GFP_NOWAIT in various other places where we have a fallback,
circuits must've gotten crossed when writing this code or something.
