Since commit 2c80cd57c743 ("mm/list_lru.c: fix list_lru_count_node()
to be race free"), we are tracking the total number of lru

memcg_drain_list_lru_node(), there is nothing to be done if nr_items
is 0. We don't even need to take the nlru->lock as no new lru entry
could be added by a racing list_lru_add() to the draining src_idx memcg
at this point.

Hi Waiman!
The patch makes total sense to me, however it needs to be rebased at least
on top of "mm: list_lru: rename memcg_drain_all_list_lrus to memcg_reparent_list_lrus".
Thanks!
This patch was based on the current linux-next tree which includes
commit ff221bc26bdd ("mm: list_lru: rename memcg_drain_all_list_lrus to
memcg_reparent_list_lrus"). I do remember to double-check linux-next
before sending this patch out. In fact, the same patch can be applied to
both linux and linux-next tree without problem.
Cheers,
Longman
