Michal Hocko 647757197c mm: clarify __GFP_NOFAIL deprecation status __GFP_NOFAIL is documented as a deprecated flag since commit `478352e789` ("mm: add comment about deprecation of __GFP_NOFAIL"). This has discouraged people from using it but in some cases an opencoded endless loop around allocator has been used instead. So the allocator is not aware of the de facto __GFP_NOFAIL allocation because this information was not communicated properly. Let's make clear that if the allocation context really cannot afford failure because there is no good failure policy then using __GFP_NOFAIL is preferable to opencoding the loop outside of the allocator.
