V2 -> V3:
+ rebase to 23-mm1 atop RvR's split LRU series.
+ Use scan_mapping_noreclaim_page() on unlock. See below.
V1 -> V2:
+ modify to use reworked 'scan_all_zones_noreclaim_pages()'
See 'TODO' below - still pending.
While working with Nick Piggin's mlock patches, I noticed that
shmem segments locked via shmctl(SHM_LOCKED) were not being handled.
SHM_LOCKed pages work like ramdisk pages--the writeback function
just redirties the page so that it can't be reclaimed. Deal with
these using the same approach as for ram disk pages.
Use the AS_NORECLAIM flag to mark address_space of SHM_LOCKed
shared memory regions as non-reclaimable. Then these pages
will be culled off the normal LRU lists during vmscan.
Add new wrapper function to clear the mapping's noreclaim state
when/if shared memory segment is munlocked.
Add 'scan_mapping_noreclaim_page()' to mm/vmscan.c to scan all
pages in the shmem segment's mapping [struct address_space] for
reclaimability now that they're no longer locked. If so, move
them to the appropriate zone lru list.
Changes depend on [CONFIG_]NORECLAIM_LRU.
