Dave Chinner de2860f463 mm: Add kvrealloc()
During log recovery of an XFS filesystem with 64kB directory
buffers, rebuilding a buffer split across two log records results
in a memory allocation warning from krealloc like this:

xfs filesystem being mounted at /mnt/scratch supports timestamps until 2038 (0x7fffffff)
XFS (dm-0): Unmounting Filesystem
XFS (dm-0): Mounting V5 Filesystem
XFS (dm-0): Starting recovery (logdev: internal)

Essentially, we are taking a multi-order allocation from kmem_alloc()
(which has an open coded no fail, no warn loop) and then
reallocating it out to 64kB using krealloc(__GFP_NOFAIL) and that is
then triggering the above warning.

This is a regression caused by converting this code from an open
coded no fail/no warn reallocation loop to using __GFP_NOFAIL.

What we actually need here is kvrealloc(), so that if contiguous
page allocation fails we fall back to vmalloc() and we don't
get nasty warnings happening in XFS.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
