From: Zhaoyang Huang <zhaoyang.huang@unisoc.com>

Being like legacy LRU management, direct reclaim threads could isolate
over-sized folios and then be rescheduled, which could lead to
unwanted generation update as well as the thrashing things like before.
This commit would like to have direct_reclaim be throttled by judging
the numbers of isolated and inactive folios.

This patch is verified by launching 8 costmem(malloc and access 1GB VM
in an 5.5GB v6.6 Android system) concurrently and got no system hang
any more(adb shell recovered in 10s which hanged 100% in mainline).

test script under Android14
