UPSTREAM: dcache: allocate external names from reclaimable kmalloc caches

We can use the newly introduced kmalloc-reclaimable-X caches, to allocate
external names in dcache, which will take care of the proper accounting
automatically, and also improve anti-fragmentation page grouping.

This effectively reverts commit f1782c9b ("dcache: account external
names as indirectly reclaimable memory") and instead passes
__GFP_RECLAIMABLE to kmalloc().  The accounting thus moves from
NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES to NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE, which is also
considered in MemAvailable calculation and overcommit decisions.
