The check 2 lines above not good enough? It's somewhat racy, but I'm not
sure what value we provide by being perfectly correct against low memory.
This thread racing against a 2nd one, where the minimal allocation of the
2nd one pushed us perfectly over the oom threshold seems a very unlikely
scenario.

Also, small allocations actually never fail :-)

Yeah Chris brought that up too, I don't really buy it given how
heavy-weight __mmu_notifier_register is. But I can add something like:

"This also has the minor benefit of slightly reducing the critical
section where we hold mmap_sem."

r-b with that added to the commit message?
