I guess you want to count exact scanning number of which lru list.
But It's impossible now since we do lumpy reclaim so that trace's
result is mixed by active/inactive list scanning.
And I don't like adding new argument for just trace although it's trivial.

I think 'mode' is more proper rather than  specific 'active'.
The 'mode' can achieve your goal without passing new argument "active".

In addition to, current mmotm has various modes.
So sometime we can get more specific result rather than vauge 'active'.


/* Isolate inactive pages */
#define ISOLATE_INACTIVE        ((__force fmode_t)0x1)
/* Isolate active pages */
#define ISOLATE_ACTIVE          ((__force fmode_t)0x2)
/* Isolate clean file */
#define ISOLATE_CLEAN           ((__force fmode_t)0x4)
/* Isolate unmapped file */
#define ISOLATE_UNMAPPED        ((__force fmode_t)0x8)
