just bpf trace shrink and get correct sc stat.
This patch fix this by simple copy code from shrink_inactive_list when
end of shrink list.
MGLRU doesn't try to write back dirt file pages in the reclaim path --
it filters them out in sort_folio() and leaves them to the page
Nice to know this, sort_folio() filters some folio indeed.
But, I want to know, if we touch some folio in shrink_folio_list(), may some
folio become dirty or writeback even if sort_folio() filter then?
writeback. (The page writeback is a dedicated component for this
purpose). So there is nothing to fix.
