mm, memcg: do not retry precharge charges
commit 3674534b775354516e5c148ea48f51d4d1909a78 upstream. When memory.move_charge_at_immigrate is enabled and precharges are depleted during move, mem_cgroup_move_charge_pte_range() will attempt to increase the size of the precharge. Prevent precharges from ever looping by setting __GFP_NORETRY. This was probably the intention of the GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_NORETRY, which is pointless as written. Fixes: 0029e19ebf84 ("mm: memcontrol: remove explicit OOM parameter in charge path") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.10.1701130208510.69402@chino.kir.corp.google.com Signed-off-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
