The nfsd file cache table can be pretty large and its allocation
may require as many as 80 contigious pages.

Employ the same fix that was employed for similar issue that was
reported for the reply cache hash table allocation several years ago
by commit 8f97514b423a ("nfsd: more robust allocation failure handling
in nfsd_reply_cache_init").

Fixes: 65294c1f2c5e ("nfsd: add a new struct file caching facility to nfsd")

You'd also need to change to kvfree(), in case it does end up being
vmalloc'ed. Also, I don't see that the new constant adds anything -- you
could just use kvcalloc().

IMO, this approach is a band-aid, as was 8f97514b423a. I note
that not as a rejection, but rather to point out that more
work is needed in this area. Big hash tables are inflexible.

I'll go with this one because you provided a patch description ;-)
But, as you noted, you need to fix up the kfree() paths too.
