[PATCH] mempool: NOMEMALLOC and NORETRY

[PATCH] mempool: NOMEMALLOC and NORETRY

Mempools have 2 problems.

The first is that mempool_alloc can possibly get stuck in __alloc_pages
when they should opt to fail, and take an element from their reserved pool.

The second is that it will happily eat emergency PF_MEMALLOC reserves
instead of going to their reserved pools.

Fix the first by passing __GFP_NORETRY in the allocation calls in
mempool_alloc.  Fix the second by introducing a __GFP_MEMPOOL flag which
directs the page allocator not to allocate from the reserve pool.
