Btrfs: fix deadlock with memory reclaim during scrub

Btrfs: fix deadlock with memory reclaim during scrub

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1844558
[ Upstream commit a5fb11429167ee6ddeeacc554efaf5776b36433a ]

When a transaction commit starts, it attempts to pause scrub and it blocks
until the scrub is paused. So while the transaction is blocked waiting for
scrub to pause, we can not do memory allocation with GFP_KERNEL from scrub,
otherwise we risk getting into a deadlock with reclaim.

Checking for scrub pause requests is done early at the beginning of the
while loop of scrub_stripe() and later in the loop, scrub_extent() and
scrub_raid56_parity() are called, which in turn call scrub_pages() and
scrub_pages_for_parity() respectively. These last two functions do memory
allocations using GFP_KERNEL. Same problem could happen while scrubbing
the super blocks, since it calls scrub_pages().

We also can not have any of the worker tasks, created by the scrub task,
doing GFP_KERNEL allocations, because before pausing, the scrub task waits
for all the worker tasks to complete (also done at scrub_stripe()).

So make sure GFP_NOFS is used for the memory allocations because at any
time a scrub pause request can happen from another task that started to
commit a transaction.
