[PATCH] erofs: force inplace I/O under low memory scenario
From: Gao Xiang
Date: Tue Dec 08 2020 - 00:48:21 EST
From: Gao Xiang <hsiangkao@xxxxxxxxxx>
Try to forcely switch to inplace I/O under low memory scenario in
order to avoid direct memory reclaim due to cached page allocation.
Signed-off-by: Gao Xiang <hsiangkao@xxxxxxxxxx>

This was commercially used internally for years, but due to customized
page->mapping before, it cannot cleanly upstream till now. Since magical
page->mapping is now gone, adapt this to the latest dev branch for
better low-memory performance (fully use inplace I/O instead.)
