currently ttm code has no any allocation limit. So it allows pages allocatation unlimited until OOM. Because if swap space is full of swapped pages and then system memory will be filled up with ttm pages. and then any memory allocation request will trigger OOM. the following patches is for prevent OOM triggered by TTM. the basic idea is when allocating TTM pages, check the free swap space firt. if it is less than the fixe limit, reject the allocation request. but there are two exceptions which should allow it regardless of zone memory account limit. a. page fault for ttm_mem_global_reserve if serving for page fault routine, because page fault routing already grabbed system memory so the allowance of this exception is harmless. Otherwise, it will trigger OOM killer. b. suspend anyway, we should allow suspend success always. at last, if bdev.no_retry is false (by defaut), keep the original behavior no any change.
