David Disseldorp 06e2d7dd90 rbd: use GFP_NOIO consistently for request allocations
commit 2224d879c7c0f85c14183ef82eb48bd875ceb599 upstream.

As of 5a60e87603, RBD object request
allocations are made via rbd_obj_request_create() with GFP_NOIO.
However, subsequent OSD request allocations in rbd_osd_req_create*()
use GFP_ATOMIC.

With heavy page cache usage (e.g. OSDs running on same host as krbd
client), rbd_osd_req_create() order-1 GFP_ATOMIC allocations have been
observed to fail, where direct reclaim would have allowed GFP_NOIO
allocations to succeed.
