dbench on tmpfs OOM's

My machine OOM'd during a run of 2 simultaneous dbench 512's on 2
separate 12GB tmpfs fs's on a 32x NUMA-Q with 32GB of RAM, 2.5.35
plus minimalistic booting fixes, no swap, and my recently posted false
OOM fix (though it is perhaps not the most desirable fix).

Note: gfp_mask == __GFP_FS | __GFP_HIGHIO | __GFP_IO | __GFP__WAIT
... the __GFP_FS checks can't save us here.

Cheers,
Bill
