But in practice that may not work ideally: the page may not yet be on an LRU, or

which is usually 0).
vmscan's shrink_active_list() culls any obviously unevictable pages -
i.e. !page_evictable(page) pages - diverting those to the unevictable list.
However, shrink_active_list() only sees unevictable pages that made it onto the
-active/inactive LRU lists. Note that these pages do not have PageUnevictable
+active/inactive LRU lists. Note that these pages do not have PG_unevictable
set - otherwise they would be on the unevictable list and shrink_active_list()
would never see them.
