Baoquan He 9d8fb273d5 mm/page_alloc.c: do not warn allocation failure on zone DMA if no managed pages 
commit c4dc63f003 upstream.

In kdump kernel of x86_64, page allocation failure is observed:

 kworker/u2:2: page allocation failure: order:0, mode:0xcc1(GFP_KERNEL|GFP_DMA), nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0
 CPU: 0 PID: 55 Comm: kworker/u2:2 Not tainted 5.16.0-rc4+ #5
 Hardware name: AMD Dinar/Dinar, BIOS RDN1505B 06/05/2013

 Mem-Info:
 ......

The above failure happened when calling kmalloc() to allocate buffer with
GFP_DMA.  It requests to allocate slab page from DMA zone while no managed
pages at all in there.

 sr_probe()
 --> get_capabilities()
     --> buffer = kmalloc(512, GFP_KERNEL | GFP_DMA);

Because in the current kernel, dma-kmalloc will be created as long as
CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is enabled.  However, kdump kernel of x86_64 doesn't have
managed pages on DMA zone since commit 6f599d8423 ("x86/kdump: Always
reserve the low 1M when the crashkernel option is specified").  The
failure can be always reproduced.

For now, let's mute the warning of allocation failure if requesting pages
from DMA zone while no managed pages.

README 

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.
