This is because __blk_crypto_fallback_encrypt_bio() assumes that the bounce bios that it submits will eventually complete, unblocking it from allocating additional bounce bios and pages. However, dm-inlinecrypt.c calls __blk_crypto_submit_bio() from within submit_bio() itself. In this case, the recursive submit_bio() simply adds the bounce bio to current->bio_list without actually submitting it yet. That breaks the guarantee that forward progress is being made. To fix this, allocate the bio and bounce pages with GFP_NOWAIT if current->bio_list is set. If it fails, punt the encryption of the remaining part of the bio to a kworker.
