Commit 21caf2fc1931 ("mm: teach mm by current context info to not do I/O during memory allocation") added the memalloc_noio_(save|restore) functions to enable people to modify the MM behavior by disbaling I/O during memory allocation. This was further extended in Fixes: 934f3072c17c ("mm: clear __GFP_FS when PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO is set"). memalloc_noio_* functions prevent allocation paths recursing back into the filesystem without explicitly changing the flags for every allocation site. However, lockdep hasn't been keeping up with the changes and it entirely misses handling the memalloc_noio adjustments. Instead, it is left to the callers of __lockdep_trace_alloc to call the functino after they have shaven the respective GFP flags. Let's fix this by making lockdep explicitly do the shaving of respective GFP flags.
