[PATCH 5/5] mlock: fix unevictable_pgs event counts on THP

From: Hugh Dickins
Date: Sun Aug 30 2020 - 17:10:02 EST


5.8 commit 5d91f31faf8e ("mm: swap: fix vmstats for huge page") has
established that vm_events should count every subpage of a THP,
including unevictable_pgs_culled and unevictable_pgs_rescued; but
lru_cache_add_inactive_or_unevictable() was not doing so for
unevictable_pgs_mlocked, and mm/mlock.c was not doing so for
unevictable_pgs mlocked, munlocked, cleared and stranded.

Fix them; but THPs don't go the pagevec way in mlock.c,
so no fixes needed on that path.

I've only checked UNEVICTABLEs: there may be more inconsistencies left.
The check_move_unevictable_pages() patch brought me to this one, but
this is more important because mlock works on all THPs, without needing
special testing "force". But, it's still just monotonically increasing
event counts, so not all that important.
