Subject: lib/rhashtable: cleanup fallback check in bucket_table_alloc()
Date: Tue, 6 Aug 2024 08:39:27 -0700
Upon allocation failure, the current check with the nofail bits is
unnecessary, and further stands in the way of discouraging direct use of
__GFP_NOFAIL. Remove this and replace with the proper way of determining
if doing a non-blocking allocation for the nested table case.
