mm: trigger page reclaim in alloc_contig_range() to stabilise watermarks
alloc_contig_range() performs memory allocation so it also should keep track on keeping the correct level of memory watermarks. This commit adds a call to *_slowpath style reclaim to grab enough pages to make sure that the final collection of contiguous pages from freelists will not starve the system.
