dm crypt: avoid deadlock in mempools
Fix a theoretical deadlock introduced in the previous commit ("dm crypt:
don't allocate pages for a partial request").
The function crypt_alloc_buffer may be called concurrently. If we allocate
from the mempool concurrently, there is a possibility of deadlock. For
example, if we have mempool of 256 pages, two processes, each wanting
256, pages allocate from the mempool concurrently, it may deadlock in a
situation where both processes have allocated 128 pages and the mempool
is exhausted.
To avoid such a scenario we allocate the pages under a mutex. In order
to not degrade performance with excessive locking, we try non-blocking
allocations without a mutex first and if that fails, we fallback to a
blocking allocations with a mutex.
