Currently there seems to be three page frag implementations which all try to allocate order 3 page, if that fails, it then fail back to allocate order 0 page, and each of them all allow order 3 page allocation to fail under certain condition by using specific gfp bits. The gfp bits for order 3 page allocation are different between different implementation, __GFP_NOMEMALLOC is or'd to forbid access to emergency reserves memory for __page_frag_cache_refill(), but it is not or'd in other implementions, __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is masked off to avoid direct reclaim in vhost_net_page_frag_refill(), but it is not masked off in __page_frag_cache_refill(). This patch unifies the gfp bits used between different implementions by or'ing __GFP_NOMEMALLOC and masking off __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM for order 3 page allocation to avoid possible pressure for mm. Leave the gfp unifying for page frag implementation in sock.c for now as suggested by Paolo Abeni.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
