Can we please hold off this reclaim tweaks for a while? Peter's
pluggable page-replace infrastructure does more fundamental and
important changes to the reclaim code (along with better organization
and separation of the heuristics such as reclaim_mapped, etc.), and
having vmscan.c to change often (as it is now) is just a pain in the
arse to handle.

Its not going to take long for the patchset to be sent for
review/shaping.
