We have a debugfs hook to directly call into i915_gem_shrink() with the
fs_reclaim acquire annotations to simulate hitting direct reclaim.
However we should also annotate this with memalloc_noreclaim, which will
set PF_MEMALLOC for us on the current context, to ensure we can't
re-enter direct reclaim(just like "real" direct reclaim does). This is
an issue now that ttm_bo_validate could potentially be called here,
which might try to allocate a tiny amount of memory to hold the new
ttm_resource struct, as per the below splat:
