Even if the above then please note that memalloc_noreclaim_* or
PF_MEMALLOC should be used with an extreme care. Essentially only for
internal memory reclaimers. It grants access to _all_ the available
memory so any abuse can be detrimental to the overall system operation.
Allocation failure in this mode means that we are out of memory and any
code relying on such an allocation has to carefuly consider failure.
This is not a random allocation mode.
