1038 * note that the LRU is being scanned too quickly and the
1039 * caller can stall after page list has been processed.
1041 * 2) Global or new memcg reclaim encounters a page that is
1042 * not marked for immediate reclaim, or the caller does not
1043 * have __GFP_FS (or __GFP_IO if it's simply going to swap,
1044 * not to fs). In this case mark the page for immediate
1045 * reclaim and continue scanning.
1047 * Require may_enter_fs because we would wait on fs, which
1048 * may not have submitted IO yet. And the loop driver might
1049 * enter reclaim, and deadlock if it waits on a page for
1050 * which it is needed to do the write (loop masks off
1051 * __GFP_IO|__GFP_FS for this reason); but more thought

1055 * PageReclaim. memcg does not have any dirty pages
1056 * throttling so we could easily OOM just because too many
1057 * pages are in writeback and there is nothing else to
