Sometimes such path require allocating memory and guaranteeing that such allocation won't block. Currently, however, there is no way to provide user flags for sb_getblk which could lead to deadlocks. This patch implements a sb_getblk_gfp with the only difference it can accept user-provided GFP flags.
