Tetsuo Handa 294fc7a4c8 fs: xfs: xfs_log: Don't use KM_MAYFAIL at xfs_log_reserve().
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.
