From: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org>

Johannes Weiner poined out that the logic in commit [1741c877: mm:
kswapd: keep kswapd awake for high-order allocations until a percentage
of the node is balanced] is backwards. Instead of allowing kswapd to go
to sleep when balancing for high order allocations, it keeps it kswapd
running uselessly.
