[f2fs-dev] [PATCH v2] f2fs: Use mapping->gfp_mask to get file cache for writing

[Jiucheng Xu via B4 Relay via Linux-f2fs-devel <linux-f2fs-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>]

From: Jiucheng Xu <jiucheng.xu@amlogic.com>

On 32-bit architectures, when GFP_NOFS is used, the file cache for write
operations cannot be allocated from the highmem and CMA.

Since mapping->gfp_mask is set to GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE during inode
allocation, using mapping_gfp_mask(mapping) as the GFP flag of getting file
cache for writing is more efficient for 32-bit architectures.

Additionally, use FGP_NOFS to avoid potential deadlock issues caused by
GFP_FS in GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE

Changes in v2:
- Add FGP_NOFS to keep original GFP_NOFS flag.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250918-origin-dev-v1-1-8d9877df9e77@amlogic.com
