Subject: [PATCH] ceph: ceph_pagelist_append might sleep while atomic

commit 39be95e9c8c0b5668c9f8806ffe29bf9f4bc0f40 upstream.

Ceph's encode_caps_cb() worked hard to not call __page_cache_alloc()
while holding a lock, but it's spoiled because ceph_pagelist_addpage()
always calls kmap(), which might sleep.  Here's the result:

Fix it up by encoding locks into a buffer first, and when the number
of encoded locks is stable, copy that into a ceph_pagelist.
