When we specify __GFP_NOWARN, we only expect that no warnings will be issued for current caller. But in the __should_failslab() and __should_fail_alloc_page(), the local GFP flags alter the global {failslab|fail_page_alloc}.attr, which is persistent and shared by all tasks. This is not what we expected, let's fix it.
