Applying with these fixes on my side:
- "No writeback of the page is queued, so they are never resubmitted"
  -> "They wait for the next writeback of the page, which never comes
  when every allocation on it fails";
- the failure causes moved into a paragraph of their own, as a "- "
  list.

ploop_advance_local_after_bat_wb() drains md->wait_llist on every
writeback of the page, so after a single -ENOMEM the next write that
allocates on the same page frees the parked pios. The hang is
permanent only when every allocation on the page fails.
