Subject: [PATCH 1/6] buffer: cleanup free_more_memory() flusher wakeup
Date: Tue, 19 Sep 2017 13:53:02 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1505850787-18311-2-git-send-email-axboe@kernel.dk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1505850787-18311-1-git-send-email-axboe@kernel.dk>
This whole function is... interesting. Change the wakeup call
to the flusher threads to pass in nr_pages == 0, instead of
some random number of pages. This matches more closely what
similar cases do for memory shortage/reclaim.
