[patch 1/7] lowmemorykiller: Only iterate over process list whenneeded.

From: David Rientjes
Date: Mon May 04 2009 - 20:27:15 EST


From: Arve HjÃnnevÃg <arve@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Use NR_ACTIVE plus NR_INACTIVE as a size estimate for our fake cache
instead the sum of rss. Neither method is accurate.

Also skip the process scan, if the amount of memory available is above
the largest threshold set.
