Subject: mm: memcontrol: retry reclaim for oom-disabled and __GFP_NOFAIL charges
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9b1306192d335759a6cf2f3b404c49e811e5f953;p=linux-beck.git

mm: memcontrol: retry reclaim for oom-disabled and __GFP_NOFAIL charges

There is no reason why oom-disabled and __GFP_NOFAIL charges should try
to reclaim only once when every other charge tries several times before
giving up.  Make them all retry the same number of times.
