The mask is manipulated here anyway and the __GFP_NOWARN is really
telling that there is no need to report the failure for _this_
allocation request. alloc_surplus_huge_page might alter that in whatever
way in the future. So I would keep NOWARN here for the code clarity
rather than rely on some implicit assumption down the path.
