That's the sole effect and intent of the patchset? To save 211 bytes?
This is almost last bunch of cleanups for lru_lock splitting,
code reducing is only nice side-effect.
Also this patchset removes many redundant lruvec relookups.
Now mostly all page-to-lruvec translations are located at the same level
as zone->lru_lock locking. So lru-lock splitting patchset can something like this:
-zone = page_zone(page)
-spin_lock_irq(&zone->lru_lock)
-lruvec = mem_cgroup_page_lruvec(page)
+lruvec = lock_page_lruvec_irq(page)

If so, I'm not sure that it is worth the risk and effort?
After lumpy-reclaim removal there a lot of dead or redundant code, maybe someone else
wants to cleanup this code, I specifically sent this set early to avoid conflicts.
