mm/vmscan: wake up flushers for legacy cgroups too

Browse Source 
Commit 726d061fbd ("mm: vmscan: kick flushers when we encounter dirty
pages on the LRU") added flusher invocation to shrink_inactive_list()
when many dirty pages on the LRU are encountered.

However, shrink_inactive_list() doesn't wake up flushers for legacy
cgroup reclaim, so the next commit bbef938429 ("mm: vmscan: remove old
flusher wakeup from direct reclaim path") removed the only source of
flusher's wake up in legacy mem cgroup reclaim path.

This leads to premature OOM if there is too many dirty pages in cgroup:
    # mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test
    # echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/tasks
    # echo 50M > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/memory.limit_in_bytes
    # dd if=/dev/zero of=tmp_file bs=1M count=100
    Killed

    dd invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x14000c0(GFP_KERNEL), nodemask=(null), order=0, oom_score_adj=0
