Removal from the LRU is done from the page freeing code, on the final free of the page.
There are a bunch of inline functions involved, but I think the chain from page_remove_rmap() back up to unmap_vmas() looks like this: page_remove_rmap zap_pte_range zap_pmd_range zap_pud_range unmap_page_range unmap_vmas So in this scenario, where do the pages actually get removed from the LRU list (assuming that they're not in use by anyone else)?
