IIRC, people says inefficient because it uses memcg codes for page-migration
for fixing up accounting. Now, We added replace-page-cache for memcg in
memcg-add-mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache-to-fix-lru-issue.patch

So, I think the problem originally mentioned is fixed.

I'll reconsinder LRU handling optimization after things seems to be good.

Thanks,
