mm: kswapd: keep kswapd awake for high-order allocations until a percentage of the node is balanced

When reclaiming for high-orders, kswapd is responsible for balancing a
node but it should not reclaim excessively.  It avoids excessive reclaim
by considering if any zone in a node is balanced then the node is
balanced.  In the cases where there are imbalanced zone sizes (e.g.
ZONE_DMA with both ZONE_DMA32 and ZONE_NORMAL), kswapd can go to sleep
prematurely as just one small zone was balanced.

This alters the sleep logic of kswapd slightly.  It counts the number of
pages that make up the balanced zones.  If the total number of balanced
pages is more than a quarter of the zone, kswapd will go back to sleep.
This should keep a node balanced without reclaiming an excessive number of
pages.

/*
* pgdat_balanced is used when checking if a node is balanced for high-order
* allocations. Only zones that meet watermarks and are in a zone allowed
* by the callers classzone_idx are added to balanced_pages. The total of
* balanced pages must be at least 25% of the zones allowed by classzone_idx
* for the node to be considered balanced. Forcing all zones to be balanced
* for high orders can cause excessive reclaim when there are imbalanced zones.
* The choice of 25% is due to
* o a 16M DMA zone that is balanced will not balance a zone on any
* reasonable sized machine
* o On all other machines, the top zone must be at least a reasonable
* precentage of the middle zones. For example, on 32-bit x86, highmem
* would need to be at least 256M for it to be balance a whole node.
* Similarly, on x86-64 the Normal zone would need to be at least 1G
* to balance a node on its own. These seemed like reasonable ratios.
