From: Keith Busch <kbusch@kernel.org>

Reclaim anonymous pages if a migration path is available now that
demotion provides a non-swap recourse for reclaiming anon pages.

Note that this check is subtly different from the
anon_should_be_aged() checks.  This mechanism checks whether a
specific page in a specific context *can* actually be reclaimed, given
current swap space and cgroup limits

anon_should_be_aged() is a much simpler and more preliminary check
which just says whether there is a possibility of future reclaim.

Changes since 20210618:
 * Consider whether demotion is disabled

Changes from Dave 202010:
 * remove 'total_swap_pages' modification

Changes from Dave 202006:
 * rename reclaim_anon_pages()->can_reclaim_anon_pages()

Note: Keith's Intel SoB is commented out because he is no
longer at Intel and his @intel.com mail will bounce.

It is better to abstract these checks into a function, e.g.
can_demote_anon_pages(), to share with anon_can_be_aged().

Thanks!  This is a really good idea!  The function can be used by
shrink_page_list() too.  So code duplication is reduced greatly!  Will
do that in the next version.
