mm/page_alloc: only set ALLOC_HIGHATOMIC for __GPF_HIGH allocations

Commit 524c48072e56 ("mm/page_alloc: rename ALLOC_HIGH to
ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE") is the start of a series that explains how __GFP_HIGH,
which implies ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE, is going to be used instead of
__GFP_ATOMIC for high atomic reserves.

Commit eb2e2b425c69 ("mm/page_alloc: explicitly record high-order atomic
allocations in alloc_flags") introduced ALLOC_HIGHATOMIC for such
allocations of order higher than 0.  It still used __GFP_ATOMIC, though.

Then, commit 1ebbb21811b7 ("mm/page_alloc: explicitly define how
__GFP_HIGH non-blocking allocations accesses reserves") just turned that
check for !__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM, ignoring that high atomic reserves were
expected to test for __GFP_HIGH.

This leads to high atomic reserves being added for high-order GFP_NOWAIT
allocations and others that clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM, which is
unexpected.  Later, those reserves lead to 0-order allocations going to
the slow path and starting reclaim.
