[PATCH] fold me "mm: introduce memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} API"

From: Michal Hocko
Date: Wed Apr 27 2016 - 16:32:57 EST


Lockdep infrastructure is hooked into early hot paths of the allocator
so __lockdep_trace_alloc has to check for PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS directly and
do not rely on current_gfp_context
