Log: Prevent ticks rollover from preventing vm_lowmem event Currently vm_pageout_scan() uses a ticks-based scheme to rate-limit the number of times that the vm_lowmem event will happen. However if no events happen for long enough for ticks to roll over, this leaves us in a long window in which vm_lowmem events will not happen. Replace the use of ticks with time_t to prevent rollover from ever being an issue.
