Kirill A. Shutemov 23fa022a07 mm/page_alloc: ensure try_alloc_pages() plays well with unaccepted memory
try_alloc_pages() will not attempt to allocate memory if the system has
*any* unaccepted memory.  Memory is accepted as needed and can remain in
the system indefinitely, causing the interface to always fail.

Rather than immediately giving up, attempt to use already accepted memory
on free lists.

Pass 'alloc_flags' to cond_accept_memory() and do not accept new memory
for ALLOC_TRYLOCK requests.

Found via code inspection - only BPF uses this at present and the
runtime effects are unclear.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
