mm/page_alloc: cache the result of node_dirty_ok()



To spread dirty pages, nodes are checked whether they have reached the
dirty limit using the expensive node_dirty_ok().  To reduce the frequency
of calling node_dirty_ok(), the last node that hit the dirty limit can be
cached.

Instead of caching the node, caching both the node and its node_dirty_ok()
status can reduce the number of calle to node_dirty_ok().

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: rename last_pgdat_dirty_limit to last_pgdat_dirty_ok]
