Subject: mm: kswapd: treat zone->all_unreclaimable in sleeping_prematurely
 similar to balance_pgdat()

After DEF_PRIORITY, balance_pgdat() considers all_unreclaimable zones to
be balanced but sleeping_prematurely does not.  This can force kswapd to
stay awake longer than it should.  This patch fixes it.
