lockdep: allow to disable reclaim lockup detection 

The current implementation of the reclaim lockup detection can lead to
false positives and those even happen and usually lead to tweak the code
to silence the lockdep by using GFP_NOFS even though the context can use
__GFP_FS just fine.

See

  http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160512080321.GA18496@dastard

as an example.

To quote Dave:
 "Ignoring whether reflink should be doing anything or not, that's a
  "xfs_refcountbt_init_cursor() gets called both outside and inside
  transactions" lockdep false positive case. The problem here is lockdep
  has seen this allocation from within a transaction, hence a GFP_NOFS
  allocation, and now it's seeing it in a GFP_KERNEL context. Also note
  that we have an active reference to this inode.

  So, because the reclaim annotations overload the interrupt level
  detections and it's seen the inode ilock been taken in reclaim
  ("interrupt") context, this triggers a reclaim context warning where
  it thinks it is unsafe to do this allocation in GFP_KERNEL context
  holding the inode ilock..."

This sounds like a fundamental problem of the reclaim lock detection.
It is really impossible to annotate such a special usecase IMHO unless
the reclaim lockup detection is reworked completely.  Until then it is
much better to provide a way to add "I know what I am doing flag" and
mark problematic places.  This would prevent from abusing GFP_NOFS flag
which has a runtime effect even on configurations which have lockdep
disabled.

Introduce __GFP_NOLOCKDEP flag which tells the lockdep gfp tracking to
skip the current allocation request.

While we are at it also make sure that the radix tree doesn't
accidentaly override tags stored in the upper part of the gfp_mask.
