968 * for IO but are being recycled through the LRU before the

971 * page due to IO error or disconnected storage so instead
972 * note that the LRU is being scanned too quickly and the
973 * caller can stall after page list has been processed.
975 * 2) Global or new memcg reclaim encounters a page that is
976 * not marked for immediate reclaim, or the caller does not
977 * have __GFP_FS (or __GFP_IO if it's simply going to swap,
978 * not to fs). In this case mark the page for immediate
979 * reclaim and continue scanning.
981 * Require may_enter_fs because we would wait on fs, which
982 * may not have submitted IO yet. And the loop driver might
983 * enter reclaim, and deadlock if it waits on a page for
984 * which it is needed to do the write (loop masks off
985 * __GFP_IO|__GFP_FS for this reason); but more thought
986 * would probably show more reasons.
988 * 3) Legacy memcg encounters a page that is already marked
989 * PageReclaim. memcg does not have any dirty pages
990 * throttling so we could easily OOM just because too many
991 * pages are in writeback and there is nothing else to
992 * reclaim. Wait for the writeback to complete.

998 * expensive than potentially causing reloads down the line.
