Well, ttm code wants to process 512 pages at a time for performance.
Memory footprint increased by 512 * sizeof(struct page *) buffer is
only 4096 bytes. What about using static buffer like below?

Subject: drm/ttm: Avoid memory allocation from shrinker functions.

Commit a91576d7 ("drm/ttm: Pass GFP flags in order to avoid
deadlock.") caused BUG_ON() due to sc->gfp_mask containing flags
which are not in GFP_KERNEL.

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87891

Changing from sc->gfp_mask to (sc->gfp_mask & GFP_KERNEL) would
avoid the BUG_ON(), but avoiding memory allocation from shrinker
function is better and reliable fix.

Shrinker function is already serialized by global lock, and
clean up function is called after shrinker function is unregistered.
Thus, we can use static buffer when called from shrinker function
and clean up function.
