While tracking down some unrelated bug I noticed that shrink_page_list() keeps testing very low page numbers (aka kernel text) until deciding that the page lacks a mapping and cannot get freed. Looks like a waste of cpu and cachelines to me.
Is there a better reason for this behaviour than lack of a patch?
