when a process falls into page fault and there is not enough free memory,it will do direct reclaim. At the same time,it is holding mmap_lock.So in case of multi-thread,it should exit from page fault ASAP. When reclaim memory,we do scan adjust between anon and file lru which may cost too much time and trigger hung task for other thread.So for a process which is not kswapd,it should just do a little scan adjust.
