After the commit 912c05720f00 ("mm: vmscan: consistent update to
pgrefill"), pgrefill is consistent with pgscan and pgsteal. Only under
global reclaim, are they updated at system level. Apart from that,
pgdeactivate is often used together with pgrefill to measure the
deactivation efficiency and pgactivate is used together with
pgscan to measure the reclaim efficiency. It's also necessary to
make pgdeactivate and pgactivate consistent with this rule.
