Brian Behlendorf 837e426c1f Linux: Never sleep in kmem_cache_alloc(..., KM_NOSLEEP) (#14926)
When a kmem cache is exhausted and needs to be expanded a new
slab is allocated.  KM_SLEEP callers can block and wait for the
allocation, but KM_NOSLEEP callers were incorrectly allowed to
block as well.

Resolve this by attempting an emergency allocation as a best
effort.  This may fail but that's fine since any KM_NOSLEEP
consumer is required to handle an allocation failure.
