This has not yet been observed, but conceivably, when using GFP_KERNEL
allocations from drbd_md_sync(), drbd_flush_after_epoch() or
receive_SyncParam(), we could trigger additional IO to our own device,
or an other device in a criss-cross setup, and end up in a local
deadlock, or potentially a distributed deadlock in a criss-cross setup
involving the peer blocked in a similar way waiting for us to make
progress.
