1196 * note that the LRU is being scanned too quickly and the
1197 * caller can stall after page list has been processed.

1200 * not marked for immediate reclaim, or the caller does not
1201 * have __GFP_FS (or __GFP_IO if it's simply going to swap,
1202 * not to fs). In this case mark the page for immediate
1203 * reclaim and continue scanning.

1206 * may not have submitted IO yet. And the loop driver might
1207 * enter reclaim, and deadlock if it waits on a page for
1208 * which it is needed to do the write (loop masks off
1209 * __GFP_IO|__GFP_FS for this reason); but more thought
