[PATCH] mm:vmscan: fix shrink sc->nr counter values issue

[Zhiguo Jiang <justinjiang@vivo.com>]

It is needed to ensure sc->nr.unqueued_dirty > 0, which can avoid to
set PGDAT_DIRTY flag when sc->nr.unqueued_dirty and sc->nr.file_taken
are both zero at the same time.

It can't be guaranteed for the PGDAT_WRITEBACK flag that only pages
marked for immediate reclaim are on evictable LRUs in other following
shrink processes of the same kswapd shrink recycling. So when both a
small amount of pages marked for immediate reclaim and a large amount
of pages marked for non-immediate reclaim are on evictable LRUs at the
same time, if it's only determined that there is at least a page marked
for immediate reclaim on evictable LRUs, kswapd shrink is throttled to
sleep, which will increase kswapd process consumption.

It can be fixed to throttle kswapd shrink when sc->nr.immediate is equal
to sc->nr.file_taken.
