Subject[PATCH v2 -mmotm-2010-01-06-14-34] check high watermark after shrink zone


* V2
* Add reviewed-by singed-off (Thanks Kosaki, Wu)
* Fix typo of changelog

== CUT HERE ==

Kswapd check that zone have enough free by zone_water_mark.
If any zone doesn't have enough page, it set all_zones_ok to zero.
!all_zone_ok makes kswapd retry not sleeping.

I think the watermark check before shrink zone is pointless.
Kswapd try to shrink zone then the check is meaninful.

This patch move the check after shrink zone.
