ms/vmscan: fix increasing nr_isolated incurred by putback unevictable pages
commit c54839a722a02818677bcabe57e957f0ce4f841d upstream.
reclaim_clean_pages_from_list() assumes that shrink_page_list() returns
number of pages removed from the candidate list. But shrink_page_list()
puts back mlocked pages without passing it to caller and without
counting as nr_reclaimed. This increases nr_isolated.
To fix this, this patch changes shrink_page_list() to pass unevictable
pages back to caller. Caller will take care those pages.
Minchan said:
It fixes two issues.
1. With unevictable page, cma_alloc will be successful.
Exactly speaking, cma_alloc of current kernel will fail due to
unevictable pages.
2. fix leaking of NR_ISOLATED counter of vmstat
With it, too_many_isolated works. Otherwise, it could make hang until
the process get SIGKILL.
