mm: only set page->pfmemalloc when ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS was used

__alloc_pages_slowpath() is called when the number of free pages is below
the low watermark.  If the caller is entitled to use ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS
then the page will be marked page->pfmemalloc.  This protects more pages
than are strictly necessary as we only need to protect pages allocated
below the min watermark (the pfmemalloc reserves).

This patch only sets page->pfmemalloc when ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS was
required to allocate the page.
