Revert "kmemleak: allow to coexist with fault injection"
When running ltp's oom test with kmemleak enabled, the below warning was
triggerred since kernel detects __GFP_NOFAIL & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is
passed in:

The mempool_alloc_slab() clears __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM, however kmemleak
has __GFP_NOFAIL set all the time due to
d9570ee3bd1d4f2 ("kmemleak:
allow to coexist with fault injection"). But, it doesn't make any sense
to have __GFP_NOFAIL and ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM specified at the same
time.
According to the discussion on the mailing list, the commit should be
reverted for short term solution. Catalin Marinas would follow up with
a better solution for longer term.
The failure rate of kmemleak metadata allocation may increase in some
circumstances, but this should be expected side effect.
