mm/page_alloc: cache the result of node_dirty_ok()
To spread dirty pages, nodes are checked whether they have reached the dirty limit using the expensive node_dirty_ok(). To reduce the frequency of calling node_dirty_ok(), the last node that hit the dirty limit can be cached. Instead of caching the node, caching both the node and its node_dirty_ok() status can reduce the number of calle to node_dirty_ok().
