Currently, when the enqueueing of a request or forget operation fails with -ENOMEM, the enqueueing is retried after a timeout. This patch removes this behavior and treats -ENOMEM in these scenarios like any other error. By bubbling up the error to user space in the case of a request, and by dropping the operation in case of a forget. This behavior matches that of the FUSE layer above, and also simplifies the error handling. The latter will come in handy for upcoming patches that optimize the retrying of operations in case of -ENOSPC.
