-	page = alloc_pages_exact_node(nodeid, flags | __GFP_NOTRACK, cachep->gfporder);
+	page = alloc_pages_exact_node(nodeid, flags | __GFP_NOTRACK | __GFP_MIRROR,
+					cachep->gfporder);
 
Set some global "got_mirror"[*] if we have any mirrored memory to __GFP_MIRROR, else to 0.

then
	
	page = alloc_pages_exact_node(nodeid, flags | __GFP_NOTRACK | got_mirror,
					cachep->gfporder);
