mm: add a low limit to alloc_large_system_hash
UDP stack needs a minimum hash size value for proper operation and also
uses alloc_large_system_hash() for proper NUMA distribution of its hash
tables and automatic sizing depending on available system memory.
On some low memory situations, udp_table_init() must ignore the
alloc_large_system_hash() result and reallocs a bigger memory area.
As we cannot easily free old hash table, we leak it and kmemleak can
issue a warning.
This patch adds a low limit parameter to alloc_large_system_hash() to
solve this problem.
We then specify UDP_HTABLE_SIZE_MIN for UDP/UDPLite hash table
allocation.
