That extra variable has been introduced just for keeping an original
passed gfp_mask because it is updated with __GFP_NOWARN on entry, thus
error handling messages were broken.
Instead we can keep an original gfp_mask without modifying it and add
an extra __GFP_NOWARN flag together with gfp_mask as a parameter to
the vm_area_alloc_pages() function. It will make it less confused.
