This patch series fixes a bug reported by Hui Zhu; see proposed
patches v1 and v2:

I decided to go in a rather different direction for this fix, and
fix a related problem at the same time.  I don't think there's any
urgency to rush this into Linus' tree, nor have I marked it for stable.
Reasonable people may disagree.

For v2, I fixed a bug around the use of __GFP_ACCOUNT, and Jan Kara
pushed me into making __getblk_gfp() disappear entirely (patches 5-8).
It's currently churning through xfstests and has got up to generic/048.

Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) (8):
  buffer: Pass GFP flags to folio_alloc_buffers()
  buffer: Hoist GFP flags from grow_dev_page() to __getblk_gfp()
  ext4: Use bdev_getblk() to avoid memory reclaim in readahead path
  buffer: Use bdev_getblk() to avoid memory reclaim in readahead path
  buffer: Convert getblk_unmovable() and __getblk() to use bdev_getblk()
  buffer: Convert sb_getblk() to call __getblk()
  ext4: Call bdev_getblk() from sb_getblk_gfp()
  buffer: Remove __getblk_gfp()
