Subject: readahead: thrashing recovery method: check unbalanced aging
From: Fengguang Wu <wfg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Always check for unbalanced aging in thrashing_recovery_readahead(), and
account RA_EVENT_READAHEAD_MUTILATE/RA_EVENT_READAHEAD_THRASHING events.
Unbalanced zone/node aging can come from abnormal system loads, or
misconfigured NUMA policies.
Thrashings are rare events, hence the cost of probe_page() is not a concern.
