Subject: mm/damon/dbgfs: use '__GFP_NOWARN' for user-specified size buffer allocation

Patch series "DAMON fixes".


This patch (of 2):

DAMON users can trigger below warning in '__alloc_pages()' by invoking
write() to some DAMON debugfs files with arbitrarily high count argument,
because DAMON debugfs interface allocates some buffers based on the
user-specified 'count'.

        if (unlikely(order >= MAX_ORDER)) {
                WARN_ON_ONCE(!(gfp & __GFP_NOWARN));
                return NULL;
        }

Because the DAMON debugfs interface code checks failure of the
'kmalloc()', this commit simply suppresses the warnings by adding
'__GFP_NOWARN' flag.
