[ Upstream commit1ebbb21811] GFP_ATOMIC allocations get flagged ALLOC_HARDER which is a vague description. In preparation for the removal of GFP_ATOMIC redefine __GFP_ATOMIC to simply mean non-blocking and renaming ALLOC_HARDER to ALLOC_NON_BLOCK accordingly. __GFP_HIGH is required for access to reserves but non-blocking is granted more access. For example, GFP_NOWAIT is non-blocking but has no special access to reserves. A __GFP_NOFAIL blocking allocation is granted access similar to __GFP_HIGH if the only alternative is an OOM kill.
