mm/page_alloc: ensure kswapd doesn't accidentally go to sleep
Patch series "A few cleanup patches for mm", v2. This series contains a few cleanup patches to remove the obsolete comments and functions, use helper macro to improve readability and so on. More details can be found in the respective changelogs. This patch (of 16): If ALLOC_KSWAPD is set, wake_all_kswapds() will be called to ensure kswapd doesn't accidentally go to sleep. But when reserve_flags is set, alloc_flags will be overwritten and ALLOC_KSWAPD is thus lost. Preserve the ALLOC_KSWAPD flag in alloc_flags to ensure kswapd won't go to sleep accidentally.
