mm: introduce dedicated WQ_MEM_RECLAIM workqueue to do lru_add_drain_all
This patch is based on https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/574623/.
Tejun submitted commit 23d11a58a9a6 ("workqueue: skip flush dependency
checks for legacy workqueues") for the legacy create*_workqueue()
interface.
But some workq created by alloc_workqueue still reports warning on
memory reclaim, e.g nvme_workq with flag WQ_MEM_RECLAIM set:
workqueue: WQ_MEM_RECLAIM nvme:nvme_reset_work is flushing !WQ_MEM_RECLAIM events:lru_add_drain_per_cpu
------------[ cut here ]------------

That's because lru_add_drain_all() will schedule the drain work on
system_wq, whose flag is set to 0, !WQ_MEM_RECLAIM.
Introduce a dedicated WQ_MEM_RECLAIM workqueue to do
lru_add_drain_all(), aiding in getting memory freed.
