At first, I thouht, too. But It's handle of min_free_kbytes.
Documentation said, it's to compute a watermark[WMARK_MIN]. 
I think many people already used that knob to contorl pages_min to keep the 
low pages. 

So, I determined function name is proper now. 
If setup_per_zone_watermark is better than it, we also have to change with 
documentation.
