      mm: vmscan: scan until it finds eligible pages · 791b48b6

      Although there are a ton of free swap and anonymous LRU page in elgible
      zones, OOM happened.

      With investigation, skipping page of isolate_lru_pages makes reclaim
      void because it returns zero nr_taken easily so LRU shrinking is
      effectively nothing and just increases priority aggressively.  Finally,
      OOM happens.
      
      The problem is that get_scan_count determines nr_to_scan with eligible
      zones so although priority drops to zero, it couldn't reclaim any pages
      if the LRU contains mostly ineligible pages.
      
      get_scan_count:
      
              size = lruvec_lru_size(lruvec, lru, sc->reclaim_idx);
      	size = size >> sc->priority;
      
      Assumes sc->priority is 0 and LRU list is as follows.
      
      	N-N-N-N-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H
      
      (Ie, small eligible pages are in the head of LRU but others are
       almost ineligible pages)
      
      In that case, size becomes 4 so VM want to scan 4 pages but 4 pages from
      tail of the LRU are not eligible pages.  If get_scan_count counts
      skipped pages, it doesn't reclaim any pages remained after scanning 4
      pages so it ends up OOM happening.
      
      This patch makes isolate_lru_pages try to scan pages until it encounters
      eligible zones's pages.
