[PATCH v2 8/9] vmscan: memcg: sleep when flushing stats during reclaim

From: Yosry Ahmed
Date: Tue Mar 28 2023 - 18:17:55 EST


Memory reclaim is a sleepable context. Allow sleeping when flushing
memcg stats to avoid unnecessarily performing a lot of work without
sleeping. This can slow down reclaim code if flushing stats is taking
too long, but there is already multiple cond_resched()'s in reclaim
code.
