[RFC,v1,1/2] mm: vmscan: refactor updating reclaimed pages in reclaim_state
Commit Message
During reclaim, we keep track of pages reclaimed from other means than
LRU-based reclaim through scan_control->reclaim_state->reclaimed_slab,
which we stash a pointer to in current task_struct.
However, we keep track of more than just reclaimed slab pages through
this. We also use it for clean file pages dropped through pruned inodes,
and xfs buffer pages freed. Rename reclaimed_slab to reclaimed, and add
a helper function that wraps updating it through current.

I didn't know that, thanks for pointing it out!

Will do that for the next version, thanks!
