The kernel is from the latest development branch, which is utilizing the IOMAP_DIO_BOUNCE flag for direct writes when the inode requires checksum. Unfortunately I didn't save the full log, only the function and the order. When the IOMAP_DIO_BOUNCE flag is utilized, we will hit the following call chain: bio_iov_iter_bounce_write() |- folio_alloc_greedy() |- folio_alloc(gfp | __GFP_NORETRY, get_order(*size)); However __GFP_NORETRY will still emit an allocation failure report when it fails. And folio_alloc_greedy() will retry with a smaller order anyway, there is no point in emitting that allocation failure report. Append the __GFP_NOWARN flag to folio_alloc() for the larger-order folio attempts.
