memcg: fix gfp_mask of callers of charge
Fix misuse of gfp_kernel. Now, most of callers of mem_cgroup_charge_xxx functions uses GFP_KERNEL. I think that this is from the fact that page_cgroup *was* dynamically allocated. But now, we allocate all page_cgroup at boot. And mem_cgroup_try_to_free_pages() reclaim memory from GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE + specified GFP_RECLAIM_MASK. * This is because we just want to reduce memory usage. "Where we should reclaim from ?" is not a problem in memcg. This patch modifies gfp masks to be GFP_HIGUSER_MOVABLE if possible. Note: This patch is not for fixing behavior but for showing sane information in source code.
