Triggerring reclaim only based on the percentage of unmapped cache
zones can fail to detect cases where reclaim is needed, e.g. if the
target has only 2 or 3 cache zones and only one unmapped cache zone,
the percentage of free cache zone is higher than
DMZ_RECLAIM_LOW_UNMAP_ZONES (30%) and reclaim does not trigger.
This problem, combined with the fact that dmz_schedule_reclaim() is
called from dmz_handle_bio() without the map lock held leads to a race
between zone allocation and dmz_should_reclaim() result. Depending on
the workload applied, this race can lead to the write path forever
waiting for a free zone without reclaim being triggerred.

Fix this by moving dmz_schedule_reclaim() inside dmz_alloc_zone()
under the map lock, checking the need for zone reclaim whenever a new
data or buffer zone needs to be allocated.

Also fix dmz_reclaim_percentage() to always return 0 if the number of
unmapped cache (or random) zone is less than or equal to 1.

I seem to have run into this during my testing, too, but then as I'd arguably had programming errors at that time I didn't manage to recreate it. Thanks for tracking it down.
