Subject: mm: vmscan: set zone flags before blocking
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f7ab8db791a8692f5ed4201dbae25722c1732a8d;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

mm: vmscan: set zone flags before blocking

In shrink_page_list a decision may be made to stall and flag a zone as
ZONE_WRITEBACK so that if a large number of unqueued dirty pages are
encountered later then the reclaimer will stall.  Set ZONE_WRITEBACK
before potentially going to sleep so it is noticed sooner.
