nr_to_scan is used for recording the number of pages that should be
scanned to keep original *ratio*.
We can assume that the value of (nr_file > nr_anon) is true, nr_to_scan
should be distribute to nr[LRU_ACTIVE_FILE] and nr[LRU_INACTIVE_FILE] in
proportion.
nr_file = nr[LRU_ACTIVE_FILE] + nr[LRU_INACTIVE_FILE];
percentage = nr[LRU_FILE] / nr_file;
Note that in comparison with *old* percentage, the "new" percentage has
the different meaning. It is just used to divide nr_so_scan pages
appropriately.
