* This is primarily to avoid stack overflows when called from deep

* used stacks in random callers for direct reclaim, but disabling
|

* reclaim for kswap is a nice side-effect as kswapd causes rather

* This avoids stack overflows when called from deeply used stacks in

* random callers for direct reclaim or memcg reclaim. We explicitly
|

* allow reclaim from kswapd as the stack usage there is relatively low.

* This should really be done by the core VM, but until that happens
|

* filesystems like XFS, btrfs and ext4 have to take care of this
|

* by themselves.
