From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@huawei.com>

Unlike __bread_gfp(), ext4 has special handing while reading sb block:

1) __GFP_NOFAIL is not set, and memory allocation can fail;
2) If buffer write failed before, set buffer uptodate and don't read
   block from disk;
3) REQ_META is set for all IO, and REQ_PRIO is set for reading xattr;
4) If failed, return error ptr instead of NULL;

This patch add a new helper __bread_gfp2() that will match above 2 and 3(
1 will be used, and 4 will still be encapsulated by ext4), and prepare to
prevent calling mapping_gfp_constraint() directly on bd_inode->i_mapping
in ext4.

I'm not enthusiastic about this but I guess it is as good as it gets
without larger cleanups in this area. So feel free to add:
