Subject: [patch 06/13] mm: memcontrol: remove explicit OOM parameter in charge path

From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@...e.cz>

For the page allocator, __GFP_NORETRY implies that no OOM should be
triggered, whereas memcg has an explicit parameter to disable OOM.

The only callsites that want OOM disabled are THP charges and charge
moving.  THP already uses __GFP_NORETRY and charge moving can use it
as well - one full reclaim cycle should be plenty.  Switch it over,
then remove the OOM parameter.
