Hmm. Are we suggesting to keep one un-evictable LRU list for all
memcgs? So we will have
exclusive lru only for file and anon. If so, we are not done to make
all the lru list being exclusive
which is critical later to improve the zone->lru_lock contention
across the memcgs

Sorry If i misinterpret the suggestion here
