Subject: mm: multi-gen LRU: optimize multiple memcgs
When multiple memcgs are available, it is possible to make better choices
based on generations and tiers and therefore improve the overall
performance under global memory pressure. This patch adds a rudimentary
optimization to select memcgs that can drop single-use unmapped clean
pages first. Doing so reduces the chance of going into the aging path or
swapping. These two operations can be costly.
A typical example that benefits from this optimization is a server running
mixed types of workloads, e.g., heavy anon workload in one memcg and heavy
buffered I/O workload in the other.
Though this optimization can be applied to both kswapd and direct reclaim,
it is only added to kswapd to keep the patchset manageable. Later
improvements will cover the direct reclaim path.
