Library can handle allocation failures. To avoid allocation warnings
__GFP_NOWARN has been added everywhere. Moreover GFP_ATOMIC has been
replaced with GFP_NOWAIT in case of stack allocation on tracker free
call.

Last time I looked at this, __GFP_NOWARN was enforced in __stack_depot_save()

You are right, however I am not sure if we should count on unexpected (at least for me) and undocumented behavior.
Currently we do not need to rely on some hidden feature.
