David Howells d7bdba1c81 9p, afs, ceph, nfs: Use current_is_kswapd() rather than gfpflags_allow_blocking()
In 9p, afs ceph, and nfs, gfpflags_allow_blocking() (which wraps a
test for __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM being set) is used to determine if
->releasepage() should wait for the completion of a DIO write to fscache
with something like:

	if (folio_test_fscache(folio)) {
		if (!gfpflags_allow_blocking(gfp) || !(gfp & __GFP_FS))
			return false;
		folio_wait_fscache(folio);
	}

Instead, current_is_kswapd() should be used instead.

Note that this is based on a patch originally by Zhaoyang Huang[1].  In
addition to extending it to the other network filesystems and putting it on
top of my fscache rewrite, it also needs to include linux/swap.h in a bunch
of places.  Can current_is_kswapd() be moved to linux/mm.h?

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.
