Hmmm, I still get ooms from fork(), even though there appears to be
enough contiguous memory:

make invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0xd0, order=1, oomkilladj=0
...
Normal: 27065*4kB 64*8kB 1*16kB 0*32kB 0*64kB 0*128kB 0*256kB 0*512kB
0*1024kB 0*2048kB 0*4096kB = 108788kB

An order-1 allocation is failing even though there are 64 order-1
groups available.
