The current recovery code gets a pointer to the task struct and does a few things all within the rcu_read_lock. This puts constraints on the types of gfp flags that can be used within the rcu lock. This patch instead gets a reference to the task within the rcu lock and releases the lock immediately, this way the task stays afloat until we need it and we also get to use the desired gfp flags.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
