Hi Greg,

Can you apply in this order please:

1) 6df1b2212950 ("mm: multi-gen LRU: rename lrugen->lists[] to
lrugen->folios[]")
2) 669281ee7ef7 ("Multi-gen LRU: fix per-zone reclaim")

With the one rename dependency, I've checked that this applies cleanly
and tested it.
Or let me know if you prefer I resend both.

Thanks,
Kalesh
