Hello ,

shrink_page_list() returns , number of pages reclaimed, when pages is unevictable it returns VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PageLRU(page) || PageUnevicatble(page),page);

We can add the unevictable pages in reclaim list in shrink_page_list(), return total number of reclaim pages including unevictable pages, let the caller handle unevictable pages.

Regards,
Pankaj
