[PATCH REBASED 1/4] mm: Move recent_rotated pages calculation to shrink_inactive_list()

From: Kirill Tkhai
Date: Mon Mar 18 2019 - 05:47:42 EST


The patch moves the calculation from putback_inactive_pages()
to shrink_inactive_list(). This makes putback_inactive_pages()
looking more similar to move_active_pages_to_lru().

To do that, we account activated pages in reclaim_stat::nr_activate.
Since a page may change its LRU type from anon to file cache
inside shrink_page_list() (see ClearPageSwapBacked()), we have to
account pages for the both types. So, nr_activate becomes an array.

Previously we used nr_activate to account PGACTIVATE events, but now
we account them into pgactivate variable (since they are about
number of pages in general, not about sum of hpage_nr_pages).
