From 44f21da41c441bfceec7b825991b6e68321d78a2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Yao Date: Wed, 16 May 2012 18:16:02 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Revert Disable direct reclaim for z_wr_* threads This commit used PF_MEMALLOC to prevent a memory reclaim deadlock. However, commit 49be0ccf1fdc2ce852271d4d2f8b7a9c2c4be6db eliminated the invocation of __cv_init(), which was the cause of the deadlock. PF_MEMALLOC has the side effect of permitting pages from ZONE_DMA to be allocated. The use of PF_MEMALLOC was found to cause stability problems when doing swap on zvols. Since this technique is known to cause problems and no longer fixes anything, we revert it.
