Subject: [PATCH] mm: vmscan: fix setting reclaim mode
Date: Sun, 8 Jan 2012 15:05:03 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAJd=RBAqzawZ=jEFt7TrZgU0gaejMkfiBxzH7Y19qqNnsZrJGw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

The check for under memory pressure is corrected, then lumpy reclaim or
reclaim/compaction could be avoided either when for order-O reclaim or
when free pages are already low enough.
