    Subject[PATCH 64 of 66] scale nr_rotated to balance memory pressure
    Date
    From
    From: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com>

    Make sure we scale up nr_rotated when we encounter a referenced
    transparent huge page. This ensures pageout scanning balance
    is not distorted when there are huge pages on the LRU.
