brd: check for REQ_NOWAIT and set correct page allocation mask

Browse source

commit 6ded703c56 upstream.

If REQ_NOWAIT is set, then do a non-blocking allocation if the operation
is a write and we need to insert a new page. Currently REQ_NOWAIT cannot
be set as the queue isn't marked as supporting nowait, this change is in
preparation for allowing that.

radix_tree_preload() warns on attempting to call it with an allocation
mask that doesn't allow blocking. While that warning could arguably
be removed, we need to handle radix insertion failures anyway as they
are more likely if we cannot block to get memory.

Remove legacy BUG_ON()'s and turn them into proper errors instead, one
for the allocation failure and one for finding a page that doesn't
match the correct index.
