dm: allocate buffer for messages with small number of arguments using GFP_NOIO
commit f36afb3957353d2529cb2b00f78fdccd14fc5e9c upstream.
dm-mpath and dm-thin must process messages even if some device is
suspended, so we allocate argv buffer with GFP_NOIO. These messages have
a small fixed number of arguments.
On the other hand, dm-switch needs to process bulk data using messages
so excessive use of GFP_NOIO could cause trouble.
The patch also lowers the default number of arguments from 64 to 8, so
that there is smaller load on GFP_NOIO allocations.
