The current calculation of min_free_kbytes only uses ZONE_DMA and

will also divide part of min_free_kbytes.This will cause the min
watermark of ZONE_NORMAL to be too small in the presence of ZONE_MOVEABLE.
__GFP_HIGH and PF_MEMALLOC allocations usually don't need moveable
zone pages, so just like ZONE_HIGHMEM, cap pages_min to a small
value in __setup_per_zone_wmarks.

Patch subject should probably be something like
"mm/page_alloc: fix min_free_kbytes calculation regarding ZONE_MOVABLE"
?
