this is confusing to me. does lrugen->nr_pages[next][type][zone] have a
chance to be none-zero even before max_seq is increased? some pages
can be in the next generation before the generation is born?

isn't it a bug if(lrugen->nr_pages[next][type][zone] > 0)? shouldn't it be?

delta = lrugen->nr_pages[prev][type][zone];
