Tejun Heo 1ebb7044c9 mempool: fix first round failure behavior
mempool modifies gfp_mask so that the backing allocator doesn't try too
hard or trigger warning message when there's pool to fall back on.  In
addition, for the first try, it removes __GFP_WAIT and IO, so that it
doesn't trigger reclaim or wait when allocation can be fulfilled from
pool; however, when that allocation fails and pool is empty too, it waits
for the pool to be replenished before retrying.

Allocation which could have succeeded after a bit of reclaim has to wait
on the reserved items and it's not like mempool doesn't retry with
__GFP_WAIT and IO.  It just does that *after* someone returns an element,
pointlessly delaying things.

Fix it by retrying immediately if the first round of allocation attempts
w/o __GFP_WAIT and IO fails.
