staging/lustre: restore __GFP_WAIT flag to memalloc calls

In Lustre 2.4, the flags passed to the memory allocation functions are
translated from CFS enumeration values types to the kernel GFP
values by calling cfs_alloc_flags_to_gfp(). This function adds
__GFP_WAIT to all flags except CFS_ALLOC_ATOMIC. In 2.5, when
the cfs wrappers were dropped, cfs_alloc_flags_to_gfp() was
removed and the CFS_ALLOC_xxxx was simply replaced with __GFP_xxxx.
This means that most memory allocation calls are missing the
__GFP_WAIT flag. The result is that Lustre experiences more ENOMEM
errors, many of which the higher levels of Lustre do not handle
robustly.
Notes GFP_NOFS = __GFP_WAIT | __GFP_IO. So the patch replaces
__GFP_IO with GFP_NOFS.
Patch does not add __GFP_WAIT to GFP_IOFS. GFP_IOFS was not used in
Lustre 2.4 so it has never been used with __GFP_WAIT.
