[ Upstream commit 8ca1b5a49885f0c0c486544da46a9e0ac790831d ]
There was a report that starting an Ubuntu in docker while using cpuset to bind it to movable nodes (a node only has movable zone, like a node for hotplug or a Persistent Memory node in normal usage) will fail due to memory allocation failure, and then OOM is involved and many other innocent processes got killed.
It can be reproduced with command:
$ docker run -it --rm --cpuset-mems 4 ubuntu:latest bash -c "grep Mems_allowed /proc/self/status"
(where node 4 is a movable node)

The reason is that in this case, the target cpuset nodes only have movable zone, while the creation of an OS in docker sometimes needs to allocate memory in non-movable zones (dma/dma32/normal) like GFP_HIGHUSER, and the cpuset limit forbids the allocation, then out-of-memory killing is involved even when normal nodes and movable nodes both have many free memory.
The OOM killer cannot help to resolve the situation as there is no usable memory for the request in the cpuset scope. The only reasonable measure to take is to fail the allocation right away and have the caller to deal with it.
So add a check for cases like this in the slowpath of allocation, and bail out early returning NULL for the allocation.
As page allocation is one of the hottest path in kernel, this check will hurt all users with sane cpuset configuration, add a static branch check and detect the abnormal config in cpuset memory binding setup so that the extra check cost in page allocation is not paid by everyone.
[thanks to Micho Hocko and David Rientjes for suggesting not handling it inside OOM code, adding cpuset check, refining comments]
