BP_EAGAIN?
So if we fail to increase the first hour, we would keep on trying to
increase forever (with a 32 second delay between each call). Do you
think it makes sense (as a future patch, not tied in with this patchset)
to printout a printk(KERN_INFO that we have been trying to increase
for the last X hours, seconds and have not gone anywhere (and perhaps
stop trying to allocate more memory?).
