vmscan: kswapd: don't retry balance_pgdat() if all zones are unreclaimable
Commit f50de2d3 (vmscan: have kswapd sleep for a short interval and double check it should be asleep) can cause kswapd to enter an infinite loop if running on a single-CPU system. If all zones are unreclaimble, sleeping_prematurely return 1 and kswapd will call balance_pgdat() again. but it's totally meaningless, balance_pgdat() doesn't anything against unreclaimable zone!
