From 84de76a2fb217dc1b6bc2965cc397d1648aa1404 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josef Bacik Date: Fri, 28 Sep 2018 07:17:49 -0400 Subject: btrfs: protect space cache inode alloc with GFP_NOFS If we're allocating a new space cache inode it's likely going to be under a transaction handle, so we need to use memalloc_nofs_save() in order to avoid deadlocks, and more importantly lockdep messages that make xfstests fail.
