From: Baolin Wang <baolin.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: memcontrol: set the correct memcg swappiness restriction Since commit c843966c556d ("mm: allow swappiness that prefers reclaiming anon over the file workingset") has expended the swappiness value to make swap to be preferred in some systems. We should also change the memcg swappiness restriction to allow memcg swap-preferred.
