Subject: [PATCH] vmscan: skip reclaim_mapped determination if we do not swap
X-Git-Tag: MMI-PSA29.97-13-9~52081
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2903fb1694dcb08a3c1d9d823cfae7ba30e66cd3;p=GitHub%2FMotorolaMobilityLLC%2Fkernel-slsi.git

[PATCH] vmscan: skip reclaim_mapped determination if we do not swap

This puts the variables and the way to get to reclaim_mapped in one block.
And allows zone_reclaim or other things to skip the determination (maybe
this whole block of code does not belong into refill_inactive_zone()?)
