more aggressively use lumpy reclaim
During an AIM7 run on a 16GB system, fork started failing around 32000 threads, despite the system having plenty of free swap and 15GB of pageable memory. This was on x86-64, so 8k stacks. If a higher order allocation fails, we can either: - keep evicting pages off the end of the LRUs and hope that we eventually create a contiguous region; this is somewhat unlikely if the system is under enough stress by new allocations - after trying normal eviction for a bit, use lumpy reclaim This patch switches the system to lumpy reclaim if the VM is having trouble freeing enough pages, using the same threshold for detection as used by pageout congestion wait.
