Mike Snitzer 6f25dd1c57 dm: respect REQ_NOWAIT flag in normal bios issued to DM
Update DM core's normal IO submission to allocate required memory
using GFP_NOWAIT if REQ_NOWAIT is set.

Tested with simple test provided in commit a9ce385344 ("dm: don't
attempt to queue IO under RCU protection") that was enhanced to check
error codes.  Also tested using fio's pvsync2 with nowait=1.

But testing with induced GFP_NOWAIT allocation failures wasn't
performed (yet).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
