[13/26] mm: reclaim_state records pages reclaimed, not slabs

Commit Message

Dave Chinner Oct. 9, 2019, 3:21 a.m. UTC

From: Dave Chinner <[e-mail]>

Add a wrapper to account for page freeing in shrinker reclaim so
that the high level scanning accounts for all the memory freed
during a shrinker scan.

No logic changes, just replacing open coded checks with a simple
wrapper.
