The folio will be set as workingset by shrink_active_pages during normal reclaiming.
However, it will be escaped from doing so when madvise move it by lru_deactivate_<file>_fn,
which will affect accuracy of thrashing.

Why are you resending this?  Johannes pointed out that your
understanding of this situation is wrong.  The folio is being
made _inactive_.  It's clearly no longer part of the working set!
