[PATCH] blk-cgroup: use GFP_NOIO for radix tree preload in blkg_conf_prep

[Tao Yu <tao1.yu@intel.com>]

blkg_conf_prep() allocates a new blkg with GFP_NOIO after dropping
queue_lock, but still preloads the radix tree node with GFP_KERNEL while
q->blkcg_mutex is held.

GFP_KERNEL may enter direct reclaim and acquire fs_reclaim, which adds
the dependency

  q->blkcg_mutex -> fs_reclaim

This completes a circular locking dependency with the existing path

  fs_reclaim -> q->q_usage_counter -> q->blkcg_mutex

and triggers a lockdep warning when configuring blkcg policies.

Use GFP_NOIO for radix_tree_preload() so that the preload context matches
the rest of this allocation path and does not recurse into reclaim while
q->blkcg_mutex is held.
