[PATCH 0/3] [v2] Repair and clean up vm.zone_reclaim_mode sysctl ABI

From: Dave Hansen
Date: Wed Jul 01 2020 - 11:30:11 EST


A previous cleanup accidentally changed the vm.zone_reclaim_mode ABI.

This series restores the ABI and then reorganizes the code to make
the ABI more obvious. Since the single-patch v1[1], I've:

* Restored the RECLAIM_ZONE naming, comment and Documentation now
that the implicit checks for it are known.
* Move RECLAIM_* definitions to a uapi header
* Add a node_reclaim_enabled() helper
