[PATCH v22 07/16] xfs: Handle krealloc errors in xlog_recover_add_to_cont_trans

From: Allison Henderson <hidden>
Date: 2021-07-27 06:21:19
Subsystem: filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), the rest, xfs filesystem · Maintainers: Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Linus Torvalds, Carlos Maiolino

Because xattrs can be over a page in size, we need to handle possible
krealloc errors to avoid warnings.  If the allocation does fail, fall
back to kmem_alloc_large, with a memcpy.

The warning:
   WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 20255 at mm/page_alloc.c:3446
                 get_page_from_freelist+0x100b/0x1690

is caused when sizes larger that a page are allocated with the
__GFP_NOFAIL flag option.  We encounter this error now because attr
values can be up to 64k in size.  So we cannot use __GFP_NOFAIL, and
we need to handle the error code if the allocation fails.
