    net: cleanup gfp mask in alloc_skb_with_frags · d14b56f5
    Michal Hocko authored
    alloc_skb_with_frags uses __GFP_NORETRY for non-sleeping allocations
    which is just a noop and a little bit confusing.
    
    __GFP_NORETRY was added by ed98df33 ("net: use __GFP_NORETRY for
    high order allocations") to prevent from the OOM killer. Yet this was
    not enough because fb05e7a8 ("net: don't wait for order-3 page
    allocation") didn't want an excessive reclaim for non-costly orders
    so it made it completely NOWAIT while it preserved __GFP_NORETRY in
    place which is now redundant.
    
    Drop the pointless __GFP_NORETRY because this function is used as
    copy&paste source for other places.
