Commit 14aa8b2d5c2e ("mm/mglru: don't sync disk for each aging cycle")
removed the opportunity to wake up flushers during the MGLRU page
reclamation process can lead to an increased likelihood of triggering
OOM when encountering many dirty pages during reclamation on MGLRU.
This leads to premature OOM if there are too many dirty pages in cgroup:
