Well the idea was that mem_cgroup_select_victim_node is specific to
try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages. It is basically a split up of otherwise
large function for readability. Same applies to
mem_cgroup_may_update_nodemask. Having that code together makes some
sense to me.

On the other hand I do agree that at least
test_mem_cgroup_node_reclaimable is generally reusable and so it
shouldn't be in vmscan. I can move it back to memcontrol but that leaves
the generated code much worse.

Fair enough then, I will drop this patch.
