Hi Trond,
I'd like to go back to setting sk->sk_allocation = GFP_NOIO (see
a1231fda7e94). That would cover sync tasks as well as async, but I'm not
sure what memalloc_nofs_save/restore gives us and if we should just try
to
apply that to all tasks.
We're getting some folks deadlocked on the xprt_sending queue with
stacks like:
