[PATCH] mm/slab: pass __GFP_NOWARN to refill_sheaf() if fallback is available

[Harry Yoo <harry.yoo@oracle.com>]

When refill_sheaf() is called, failing to refill the sheaf doesn't
necessarily mean the allocation will fail because a fallback path
might be available and serve the allocation request.

Suppress spurious warnings by passing __GFP_NOWARN along with
__GFP_NOMEMALLOC whenever a fallback path is available.

When the caller is alloc_full_sheaf() or __pcs_replace_empty_main(),
the kernel always falls back to the slowpath (__slab_alloc_node()).
For __prefill_sheaf_pfmemalloc(), the fallback path is available
only when gfp_pfmemalloc_allowed() returns true.
