IMHO, we should try to allocate from preferred node firstly (which will
kick kswapd of the preferred node if necessary).  If failed, we will
fallback to all allowed node.

As we discussed as follows,

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/69f2d063a15f8c4afb4688af7b7890f32af55391.camel@intel.com/

That is, something like below,

static struct page *alloc_demote_page(struct page *page, unsigned long node)
{
	struct page *page;
	nodemask_t allowed_mask;
	struct migration_target_control mtc = {
		/*
		 * Allocate from 'node', or fail quickly and quietly.
		 * When this happens, 'page' will likely just be discarded
		 * instead of migrated.
		 */
		.gfp_mask = (GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE & ~__GFP_RECLAIM) |
			    __GFP_THISNODE  | __GFP_NOWARN |
			    __GFP_NOMEMALLOC | GFP_NOWAIT,
		.nid = node
	};

	page = alloc_migration_target(page, (unsigned long)&mtc);
	if (page)
		return page;

	mtc.gfp_mask &= ~__GFP_THISNODE;
	mtc.nmask = &allowed_mask;

	return alloc_migration_target(page, (unsigned long)&mtc);
}
