mm, memcg: do not retry precharge charges

commit 3674534b upstream.

When memory.move_charge_at_immigrate is enabled and precharges are
depleted during move, mem_cgroup_move_charge_pte_range() will attempt to
increase the size of the precharge.

Prevent precharges from ever looping by setting __GFP_NORETRY.  This was
probably the intention of the GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_NORETRY, which is
pointless as written.

Fixes: 0029e19e ("mm: memcontrol: remove explicit OOM parameter in charge path")
