We recently added the change in global background reclaim which counts the return value of soft_limit reclaim. Now this patch adds the similar logic on global direct reclaim. We should skip scanning global LRU on shrink_zone if soft_limit reclaim does enough work. This is the first step where we start with counting the nr_scanned and nr_reclaimed from soft_limit reclaim into global scan_control. no change since v1.
