This is a trivial but worth having clean-up patch. There should be
no side effects except page->lru is temporarily poisoned after it's
deleted but before it's added to the new list in move_pages_to_lru()
(which is not a problem).

Hi Alex, I just realized your
  [v18,08/32] mm/vmscan: remove unnecessary lruvec adding
at
  https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11733123/
also touches move_pages_to_lru(). I agree it's better not to add
a page we are going to free to the list in the first place. The
rest in this patch would be too trivial to be a separate one (on
top of yours).

So would you mind taking of the clean-up too in your series? I'll
drop this one then. Thanks.

it's interesting to know the PageLRU left has no bad impact in real life. 
it justs seems a path confliction with my that patch.

Ok, maybe I wasn't clear before. Please see what exactly I'm asking
you to consider below.

1) The above has no conflict with your series and therefore can go
separately. Feel free to include it.

2) The above is the same change you've made.

(No, we can't leave PG_lru uncleared. It's done by the page_off_lru()
right below).

3) The above is the conflict. Since we won't add and then delete a
page after your patch, we won't need it. But I do want this (you've
snipped from your reply, so I take that you already figured it out):

-		lru = page_lru(page);
-
-		nr_pages = thp_nr_pages(page);
-		update_lru_size(lruvec, lru, page_zonenum(page), nr_pages);
-		list_move(&page->lru, &lruvec->lists[lru]);
+		add_page_to_lru_list(page, lruvec, page_lru(page));

No worries if you prefer this to go separately too.

Sorry about this false claim. You are right: we need to keep
__ClearPageLRU() here. page_off_lru() doesn't do it for us.

I'll fix this in v2. Thanks.
