This is the only site that is really involved with THP.  But you need
to touch every site because you change mem_cgroup_check_under_limit()
instead of adding a new function.

I would suggest just adding another function for checking available
space explicitely and only changing this single call site to use it.

Just ignore the return value of mem_cgroup_hierarchical_reclaim() and
check for enough space unconditionally.

Everybody else is happy with PAGE_SIZE pages.
