Subject: [PATCH] mm: Try invalidate disk caches last when out of memory
Every heap grow will cause all disk caches invalidated which decreases
performance severely. This patch moves disk cache invalidation code to
the last of memory squeezing measures. So, disk caches are released only
when there are no other ways to get free memory.
