Ignore zfs_arc_shrinker_limit in direct reclaim mode
zfs_arc_shrinker_limit (default: 10000) avoids ARC collapse
due to excessive memory reclaim. However, when the kernel is
in direct reclaim mode (ie: low on memory), limiting ARC reclaim
increases OOM risk. This is especially true on system without
(or with inadequate) swap.

This patch ignores zfs_arc_shrinker_limit when the kernel is in
direct reclaim mode, avoiding most OOM. It also restores
"echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" ability to correctly drop
(almost) all ARC.
