    mm: warn about illegal __GFP_NOFAIL usage in a more appropriate location and manner · 903edea6

    Three points for this change:
    
    1. We should consolidate all warnings in one place. Currently, the
       order > 1 warning is in the hotpath, while others are in less
       likely scenarios. Moving all warnings to the slowpath will reduce
       the overhead for order > 1 and increase the visibility of other
       warnings.
    
    2. We currently have two warnings for order: one for order > 1 in
       the hotpath and another for order > costly_order in the laziest
       path. I suggest standardizing on order > 1 since it's been in
       use for a long time.
    
    3. We don't need to check for __GFP_NOWARN in this case. __GFP_NOWARN
       is meant to suppress allocation failure reports, but here we're
       dealing with bug detection, not allocation failures. So replace
       WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP by WARN_ON_ONCE.
