Btrfs relies on GFP_NOFS allocation when commiting the transaction but
since "mm: page_alloc: do not lock up GFP_NOFS allocations upon OOM"
those allocations are allowed to fail which can lead to a pre-mature
transaction abort:

I can either put the btrfs nofail ones on my pull for Linus, or you can
add my sob and send as one unit.  Just let me know how you'd rather do
it.

OK, I will rephrase the changelogs (tomorrow) to not refer to an
unmerged patch and would appreciate if you can take them and route them
through your tree. I will then drop them from my pile.
