mm: try to exhaust highatomic reserve before the OOM
I got OOM report from production team with v4.4 kernel. It had enough free memory but failed to allocate GFP_KERNEL order-0 page and finally encountered OOM kill. It occured during QA process which launches several apps, switching and so on. It happned rarely. IOW, In normal situation, it was not a problem but if we are unluck so that several apps uses peak memory at the same time, it can happen. If we manage to pass the phase, the system can go working well. I could reproduce it with my test(memory spike easily. Look at below. The reason is free pages(19M) of DMA32 zone are reserved for HIGHORDERATOMIC and doesn't unreserved before the OOM. balloon invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x24280ca(GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE|__GFP_ZERO), order=0, oom_score_adj=0 balloon cpuset=/ mems_allowed=0 CPU: 1 PID: 8473 Comm: balloon Tainted: G W OE 4.8.0-rc7-00219-g3f74c9559583-dirty #3161 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS Ubuntu-1.8.2-1ubuntu1 04/01/2014 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x63/0x90 dump_header+0x5c/0x1ce oom_kill_process+0x22e/0x400 out_of_memory+0x1ac/0x210 __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x101e/0x1040 handle_mm_fault+0xa0a/0xbf0 __do_page_fault+0x1dd/0x4d0 trace_do_page_fault+0x43/0x130 do_async_page_fault+0x1a/0xa0 async_page_fault+0x28/0x30 Mem-Info: active_anon:383949 inactive_anon:106724 isolated_anon:0 active_file:15 inactive_file:44 isolated_file:0 unevictable:0 dirty:0 writeback:24 unstable:0 slab_reclaimable:2483 slab_unreclaimable:3326 mapped:0 shmem:0 pagetables:1906 bounce:0 free:6898 free_pcp:291 free_cma:0 Node 0 active_anon:1535796kB inactive_anon:426896kB active_file:60kB inactive_file:176kB unevictable:0kB isolated(anon):0kB isolated(file):0kB mapped:0kB dirty:0kB writeback:96kB shmem:0kB writeback_tmp:0kB unstable:0kB pages_scanned:1418 all_unreclaimable?

As last resort, try to unreserve highatomic pages again and if it has moved pages to non-highatmoc free list, retry reclaim once more.
