Dear Vinmenon,

I found a part of ION memory will be return to system in android platform,
But these memorys  can’t accounted in low-memory-killer strategy.
…
And I also found ION memory comes from, kmalloc/vmalloc/alloc pages/reserved memory.
What affect if account these memorys for free?
Many thanks.
