mm: introduce dedicated WQ_MEM_RECLAIM workqueue to do lru_add_drain_all
This patch is based on https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/574623/. Tejun submitted commit 23d11a58a9a6 ("workqueue: skip flush dependency checks for legacy workqueues") for the legacy create*_workqueue() interface. But some workq created by alloc_workqueue still reports warning on memory reclaim, e.g nvme_workq with flag WQ_MEM_RECLAIM set: workqueue: WQ_MEM_RECLAIM nvme:nvme_reset_work is flushing !WQ_MEM_RECLAIM events:lru_add_drain_per_cpu ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 6 at SoC/linux/kernel/workqueue.c:2448 check_flush_dependency+0xb4/0x10c ... check_flush_dependency+0xb4/0x10c flush_work+0x54/0x140 lru_add_drain_all+0x138/0x188 migrate_prep+0xc/0x18 alloc_contig_range+0xf4/0x350 cma_alloc+0xec/0x1e4 dma_alloc_from_contiguous+0x38/0x40 __dma_alloc+0x74/0x25c nvme_alloc_queue+0xcc/0x36c nvme_reset_work+0x5c4/0xda8 process_one_work+0x128/0x2ec worker_thread+0x58/0x434 kthread+0xd4/0xe8 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x50 That's because lru_add_drain_all() will schedule the drain work on system_wq, whose flag is set to 0, !WQ_MEM_RECLAIM. Introduce a dedicated WQ_MEM_RECLAIM workqueue to do lru_add_drain_all(), aiding in getting memory freed.
