mainlining shenanigans
When the system is close-to-OOM, fsync() may fail due to -ENOMEM because
xfs_log_reserve() is using KM_MAYFAIL. It is a bad thing to fail writeback
operation due to user-triggerable OOM condition. Since we are not using
KM_MAYFAIL at xfs_trans_alloc() before calling xfs_log_reserve(), let's
use the same flags at xfs_log_reserve().
oom-torture: page allocation failure: order:0, mode:0x46c40(GFP_NOFS|__GFP_NOWARN|__GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL|__GFP_COMP), nodemask=(null)

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.
