It looks like this can be called from alua_activate, and we cannot use
GFP_KERNEL in the same IO path something could get written to.
Is something like GFP_ATOMIC more appropriate?

You could remove the space so it looks like the other code.
Sure.

Do we need to handle the case where this fails?
I cannot see how this _could_ fail, as this function is provided by
the module, so the very existence of the function depends on the
module. But maybe it's better to check, even so.
I'll send an updated patch.
Cheers,
Hannes
