Subject: [PATCH 3/3] mm: Pass FGP_NOWAIT in generic_file_buffered_read and
 enable ext4

All page-obtaining functions, which are used by ext4, look
to go thru pagecache_get_page() path, so all taken uncharged
pages will be properly charged. Thus, we enable AS_KEEP_MEMCG_RECLAIM
for ext4 regular files.

Since memcg accounting requires page lock, and function
generic_file_buffered_read() is the only of ext4-used
functions, which does not care about FGP_NOWAIT, we make
it use find_get_page_flags() and pass the flag. This allows
pagecache_get_page() to use lock_page(), when it's possible.
