To minimize the chance of triggering an OOM during direct reclaim.
The kmem caches have been improved to make a best effort to reclaim
at least one slab when a reclaim function is registered. This helps
avoid the case where objects are released but they are spread over
multiple slabs so no memory gets reclaimed.
Care has been taken to avoid deadlocking if the reclaim function
is unable to make forward progress. Additionally, the reclaim
function may be skipped entirely if there are already free slabs
which can be safely reaped.
