Subject: mm/z3fold: fix sheduling while atomic

Patch series "A few fixup patches for z3fold".

This series contains a few fixup patches to fix sheduling while atomic,
fix possible null pointer dereferencing, fix various race conditions and
so on. More details can be found in the respective changelogs.


This patch (of 9):

z3fold's page_lock is always held when calling alloc_slots.  So gfp should
be GFP_ATOMIC to avoid "scheduling while atomic" bug.
