vmscan: check high watermark after shrink zone
Kswapd checks that zone has sufficient pages free via zone_watermark_ok(). If any zone doesn't have enough pages, we set all_zones_ok to zero. !all_zone_ok makes kswapd retry rather than sleeping. I think the watermark check before shrink_zone() is pointless. Only after kswapd has tried to shrink the zone is the check meaningful. Move the check to after the call to shrink_zone().
