Subject: mm, thp: abort compaction if migration page cannot be charged to memcg
If page migration cannot charge the temporary page to the memcg,
migrate_pages() will return -ENOMEM. This isn't considered in memory
compaction however, and the loop continues to iterate over all pageblocks
trying to isolate and migrate pages. If a small number of very large
memcgs happen to be oom, however, these attempts will mostly be futile
leading to an enormous amout of cpu consumption due to the page migration
failures.
This patch will short circuit and fail memory compaction if
migrate_pages() returns -ENOMEM. COMPACT_PARTIAL is returned in case some
migrations were successful so that the page allocator will retry.
