mm: kswapd: use the classzone idx that kswapd was using for sleeping_prematurely()

When kswapd is woken up for a high-order allocation, it takes account of
the highest usable zone by the caller (the classzone idx).  During
allocation, this index is used to select the lowmem_reserve[] that should
be applied to the watermark calculation in zone_watermark_ok().

When balancing a node, kswapd considers the highest unbalanced zone to be
the classzone index.  This will always be at least be the callers
classzone_idx and can be higher.  However, sleeping_prematurely() always
considers the lowest zone (e.g.  ZONE_DMA) to be the classzone index.
This means that sleeping_prematurely() can consider a zone to be balanced
that is unusable by the allocation request that originally woke kswapd.
This patch changes sleeping_prematurely() to use a classzone_idx matching
the value it used in balance_pgdat().
