From: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com>

3.4.111-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

commit 1c7518794a3647eb345d59ee52844e8a40405198 upstream.

Allocate memory using GFP_NOIO when deleting a btree. dm_btree_del()
can be called via an ioctl and we don't want to recurse into the FS or
block layer.
