Yup, and in that case the best we can do is just ignore the event (i.e.
not pass it to the userland): thing is, based on the fact that
'reclaimed > scanned' we can't actually conclude anything about the
pressure: it might be still high, or we actually freed enough.

Thanks,

p.s. I was somewhat sure that someone sent a patch to ignore 'reclaimed >
scanned' situation, but I cannot find it in my mailbox. Maybe I was
dreaming about it? :)
