That internally goes through start_this_handle() which calls: handle->saved_alloc_context = memalloc_nofs_save(); and we restore the allocation context only in stop_this_handle() when stopping the handle. And with this fs_reclaim_acquire() should remove __GFP_FS from the mask and not call __fs_reclaim_acquire(). Now I have no idea why something here didn't work out. Given we don't have a reproducer it will be probably difficult to debug this. I'd note that about year and half ago similar report happened (got autoclosed) so it may be something real somewhere but it may also be just some HW glitch or something like that.
