yeah, I know we do lumpy reclaim, but it has no hint about whether it is
a file or anon lru. So I think we at least need a 'file=[0/1]' in this
trace event.

sorry, but how can we find the real relationship between 'mode' and
'active'? I am not quite familiar with this field. So if you can
explicit describe it, I am fine to drop this field.
