[ Upstream commit e048fc50d7bde23136e098e04a324d7e3404408d ]

A driver using dev_alloc_page() must not reuse a page allocated from
emergency memory reserve.

Otherwise all packets using this page will be immediately dropped,
unless for very specific sockets having SOCK_MEMALLOC bit set.

This issue might be hard to debug, because only a fraction of received
packets would be dropped.
