mm: warn about illegal __GFP_NOFAIL usage in a more appropriate location and manner
Three points for this change:
1. We should consolidate all warnings in one place. Currently, the
order > 1 warning is in the hotpath, while others are in less
likely scenarios. Moving all warnings to the slowpath will reduce
the overhead for order > 1 and increase the visibility of other
warnings.
2. We currently have two warnings for order: one for order > 1 in
the hotpath and another for order > costly_order in the laziest
path. I suggest standardizing on order > 1 since it's been in
use for a long time.
3. We don't need to check for __GFP_NOWARN in this case. __GFP_NOWARN
is meant to suppress allocation failure reports, but here we're
dealing with bug detection, not allocation failures. So replace
WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP by WARN_ON_ONCE.
[v-songbaohua@oppo.com: also update the doc for __GFP_NOFAIL with order > 1]
