[PATCH 1/2] mm/page_alloc: change sysctl_lower_zone_reserve_ratio to sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio

From: Yaowei Bai
Date: Tue Aug 25 2015 - 10:06:52 EST


We use sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio rather than sysctl_lower_zone_reserve_ratio to
determine how aggressive the kernel is in defending lowmem from the possibility of
being captured into pinned user memory. To avoid misleading, correct it in some
comments.
