What exactly do you mean by annotating the affected allocations?

There are currently two users of this. In both places, we are interested
in disallowing recursion, because cache creation will trigger new cache
allocations that will bring us back here.

We can't rely on unsetting the GFP flag we're using for this, because
that affects only the page allocation, not the metadata allocation for
the cache.

All right here.
