An issue is observed where mallocs are failing due to overcommit
failure.
The failure happens when there is high ION page pool since ION page
pool is not considered reclaimable by the overcommit calculation
code.
This change considers ion pool pages as indirectly reclaimable and
thus
accounted as available memory in the overcommit calculation.

I'm sure this fixes the problem but I don't think we want to
start throwing page adjustments into Ion. Why isn't this
memory already considered reclaimable by existing calculations?
Thanks,

You can refer to discussion here https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/5/361
introducing
NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES for the memory which is not currently
considered
as reclaimable
Thanks,
Vijay
There was also discussion specific to ion in that thread you can find it
here

Thanks,
