I think that "print the number of unsanitized pages with pr_err()"
contradicts the patch subject of "Do not consider unsanitized pages
an error".

I think I am missing something here. A lot of logic is added here but I
do not see why it is necessary. ksgxd() knows via kthread_should_stop() if
the reclaimer was canceled. I am thus wondering, could the above not be
simplified to something similar to V1:
