Subject: mm: vmscan: count only dirty pages as congested
X-Git-Tag: v4.9.8~5219^2~144
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1da58ee2a0279a1b0afd3248396de5659b8cf95b;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-rpi3.git

mm: vmscan: count only dirty pages as congested

shrink_page_list() counts all pages with a mapping, including clean pages,
toward nr_congested if they're on a write-congested BDI.
shrink_inactive_list() then sets ZONE_CONGESTED if nr_dirty ==
nr_congested.  Fix this apples-to-oranges comparison by only counting
pages for nr_congested if they count for nr_dirty.
