    [PATCH] writeback memory allocation robustness · 711daf00
    Andrew Morton authored
    - If we're PF_MEMALLOC and BIO allocation failed, fall back to try
      to allocate a smaller BIO (from a different mempool)
    
    - When writepages() gets confused, call a_ops->writepage()
      instead of going directly to block_write_full_page().  It
      gives the fs more flexibility, and XFS may want this.
