Subject: libceph: ceph-msgr workqueue needs a resque worker
From: Ilya Dryomov <[email protected]>
commit f9865f06f7f18c6661c88d0511f05c48612319cc upstream.
Commit f363e45fd118 ("net/ceph: make ceph_msgr_wq non-reentrant")
effectively removed WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag from ceph_msgr_wq. This is
wrong - libceph is very much a memory reclaim path, so restore it.
