[PATCH] mm: fallback_alloc cpuset_zone_allowed irq fix



fallback_alloc() could end up calling cpuset_zone_allowed() with interrupts
disabled (by code in kmem_cache_alloc_node()), but without __GFP_HARDWALL
set, leading to a possible call of a sleeping function with interrupts
disabled.

This results in the BUG report:

  BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/cpuset.c:1520
in_atomic():0, irqs_disabled():1

Thanks to Paul Menage for catching this one.
