We often see lost ram is still very high even we close the camera app.
That's because camera's ion memory goes into ion cache after use, not
buddy system. And this cache was not counted in proc/meminfo/memAvailable,
so it can not reflect the true memAvailable in this state. It may affects
some components l(CR) camera or lmkd which need evaluate true memAvailable
in system. Take camera as example, while launching camera, camera app needs
calcuate the available memory then call framework api to kill processes,
without this patch, we will see overkill.
This patch is only for 4.14 & 4.19, on kernel 5.4, ion cache will
be counted in memAvailable, so memAvailable is always trustable.
