Subject: [PATCH 038/115] gpu: ion: Modify gfp flags in ion_system_heap

From: Rebecca Schultz Zavin <rebecca@...roid.com>

When allocations larger than order 4 are made, use _GFP_NORETRY
and __GFP_NO_KSWAPD so kswapd doesn't get kicked off to reclaim
these larger chunks.  For smaller allocaitons, these are
unnecessary, as the system should be able to reclaim these.
