When logging tree mod log operations we start by checking, in a lockless manner, if we need to log - if we don't, we just return and do nothing, otherwise we will allocate one or more tree mod log operations and then check again if we need to log. This second check will take the tree mod log lock in write mode if we need to log, otherwise it will do nothing and we just free the allocated memory and return success. We can improve on this by not returning an error in case the memory allocations fail, unless the second check tells us that we actually need to log. That is, if we fail to allocate memory and the second check tells use that we don't need to log, we can just return success and avoid returning -ENOMEM to the caller. Currently tree mod log failures are dealt with either a BUG_ON() or a transaction abort, as tree mod log operations are logged in code paths that modify a b+tree. So just avoid failing with -ENOMEM if we fail to allocate a tree mod log operation unless we actually need to log the operations, that is, if tree_mod_dont_log() returns true.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
