For most cases it is enough to use common GFP_KERNEL flag. However,
there is one place with defined fallback path on unsuccessful allocation.
In this case it would be preferred to append on first allocation attempt
__GFP_NOWARN and __GFP_NORETRY flags to suppress possible warnings and
to shorten the path to the fallback in a case of memory pressure.
