Subject: [RFC][PATCH 5/9] break out some mmu_skrink() code
Date: Tue, 15 Jun 2010 06:55:24 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100615135524.8C3300E8@kernel.beaverton.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100615135518.BC244431@kernel.beaverton.ibm.com>


This basically takes the loop contents and sticks it in
its own function for readability.  Don't pay too much
attention to the use of nr_scanned in here.  It's a bit
wonky but it'll change in a minute anyway.
