xfs: use memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} instead of memalloc_noio*
kmem_zalloc_large and _xfs_buf_map_pages use memalloc_noio_{save,restore} API to prevent from reclaim recursion into the fs because vmalloc can invoke unconditional GFP_KERNEL allocations and these functions might be called from the NOFS contexts. The memalloc_noio_save will enforce GFP_NOIO context which is even weaker than GFP_NOFS and that seems to be unnecessary. Let's use memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} instead as it should provide exactly what we need here - implicit GFP_NOFS context.
