Currently, lazy free pages are not accounted into available memory, but they are reclaimable actually, like reclaimable slabs. Accounting lazy free pages into available memory should reflect the real memory pressure status, and also would help administrators and/or other high level scheduling tools make better decision. The /proc/meminfo would show more available memory with test which creates ~1GB deferred split THP. Before: MemAvailable: 43544272 kB ...

AnonHugePages: 6144 kB ShmemHugePages: 0 kB ShmemPmdMapped: 0 kB LazyFreePages: 1046528 kB MADV_FREE pages are not accounted for NR_LAZYFREE since they have been put on inactive file LRU and accounted into available memory. Accounting here would double account them.
