Sorry, I forgot one aspect, see comment below.

The minimal elements in all smaller mempools should also be configurable via a module parameter, if this is required to process a larger number of NOMEMALLOC requests in parallel. There should be one parameter per module, which configures the minimal number of all mempools of this module. I also would prefer the same parameter name across all modules (e.g. "mempool_threshold").
