This is hackish but it should help you in this case. Kamezawa, what do
you think about that? Should we generalize this and prepare something
like mem_cgroup_cache_charge_locked which would add __GFP_NORETRY
automatically and use the function whenever we are in a locked context?
To be honest I do not like this very much but nothing more sensible
(without touching non-memcg paths) comes to my mind.

I installed kernel with this patch, will report back if problem occurs
again OR in few weeks if everything will be ok. Thank you!
Thanks!
Btw, will this patch be backported to 3.2?
Once we agree on a proper solution it will be backported to the stable
trees.
