Subject: vmscan: fix unmapping behaviour for RECLAIM_SWAP
From: Johannes Weiner <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx>
The RECLAIM_SWAP flag in zone_reclaim_mode controls whether zone_reclaim()
is allowed to swap or not (obviously).
This is currently implemented by allowing or forbidding reclaim to unmap
pages, which also controls reclaim of shared pages and is thus not
appropriate.
We can do better by using the sc->may_swap parameter instead, which
controls whether the anon lists are scanned.
Unmapping of pages is then allowed per default from zone_reclaim().
