vmscan: all_unreclaimable() use zone->all_unreclaimable as a name

all_unreclaimable check in direct reclaim has been introduced at 2.6.19
by following commit.

	2006 Sep 25; commit 408d8544; oom: use unreclaimable info

And it went through strange history. firstly, following commit broke
the logic unintentionally.

	2008 Apr 29; commit a41f24ea; page allocator: smarter retry of
				      costly-order allocations

Two years later, I've found obvious meaningless code fragment and
restored original intention by following commit.

	2010 Jun 04; commit bb21c7ce; vmscan: fix do_try_to_free_pages()
				      return value when priority==0

But, the logic didn't works when 32bit highmem system goes hibernation
and Minchan slightly changed the algorithm and fixed it .

	2010 Sep 22: commit d1908362: vmscan: check all_unreclaimable
				      in direct reclaim path

But, recently, Andrey Vagin found the new corner case. Look,

	struct zone {
	  ..
	        int                     all_unreclaimable;
	  ..
	        unsigned long           pages_scanned;
	  ..
	}

zone->all_unreclaimable and zone->pages_scanned are neigher atomic
variables nor protected by lock.  Therefore zones can become a state of
zone->page_scanned=0 and zone->all_unreclaimable=1.  In this case, current
all_unreclaimable() return false even though zone->all_unreclaimabe=1.

This resulted in the kernel hanging up when executing a loop of the form

1. fork
2. mmap
3. touch memory
4. read memory
5. munmmap

as described in
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1348725#1348725

Is this ignorable minor issue?  No.  Unfortunately, x86 has very small dma
zone and it become zone->all_unreclamble=1 easily.  and if it become
all_unreclaimable=1, it never restore all_unreclaimable=0.  Why?  if
all_unreclaimable=1, vmscan only try DEF_PRIORITY reclaim and
a-few-lru-pages>>DEF_PRIORITY always makes 0.  that mean no page scan at
all!

Eventually, oom-killer never works on such systems.  That said, we can't
use zone->pages_scanned for this purpose.  This patch restore
all_unreclaimable() use zone->all_unreclaimable as old.  and in addition,
to add oom_killer_disabled check to avoid reintroduce the issue of commit
d1908362 ("vmscan: check all_unreclaimable in direct reclaim path").
