From: Coly Li <colyli@xxxxxxx> commit 5fe48867856367142d91a82f2cbf7a57a24cbb70 upstream. There are some meta data of bcache are allocated by multiple pages, and they are used as bio bv_page for I/Os to the cache device. for example cache_set->uuids, cache->disk_buckets, journal_write->data, bset_tree->data. For such meta data memory, all the allocated pages should be treated as a single memory block. Then the memory management and underlying I/O code can treat them more clearly. This patch adds __GFP_COMP flag to all the location allocating >0 order pages for the above mentioned meta data. Then their pages are treated as compound pages now.
