[PATCH 4/7] mm: vmscan: remove old flusher wakeup from direct reclaim path

2017-02-02 Thread Johannes Weiner
Direct reclaim has been replaced by kswapd reclaim in pretty much all common memory pressure situations, so this code most likely doesn't accomplish the described effect anymore. The previous patch wakes up flushers for all reclaimers when we encounter dirty pages at the tail end of the LRU.
