memcg: page_alloc: skip bulk allocator for __GFP_ACCOUNT

Browse source

Commit 5c1f4e690e ("mm/vmalloc: switch to bulk allocator in
__vmalloc_area_node()") switched to bulk page allocator for order 0
allocation backing vmalloc.  However bulk page allocator does not
support __GFP_ACCOUNT allocations and there are several users of
kvmalloc(__GFP_ACCOUNT).

For now make __GFP_ACCOUNT allocations bypass bulk page allocator.  In
future if there is workload that can be significantly improved with the
bulk page allocator with __GFP_ACCCOUNT support, we can revisit the
decision.
