Subject: mm/mglru: use a smaller batch for reclaim
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6e9be217a3cecbd8e8a5beec2aeba4ae9ebd2af9;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

mm/mglru: use a smaller batch for reclaim

With a fixed number to reclaim calculated at the beginning, making each
following step smaller should reduce the lock contention and avoid
over-aggressive reclaim of folios, as it will abort earlier when the
number of folios to be reclaimed is reached.
