mm/kasan: don't reduce quarantine in atomic contexts

Currently we call quarantine_reduce() for ___GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM (implied
by __GFP_RECLAIM) allocation.  So, basically we call it on almost every
allocation.  quarantine_reduce() sometimes is heavy operation, and
calling it with disabled interrupts may trigger hard LOCKUP:

 NMI watchdog: Watchdog detected hard LOCKUP on cpu 2irq event stamp: 1411258

Reduce the quarantine_reduce iff direct reclaim is allowed.
