Thank you too much. So, MGLRU have many diff between typic LRU reclaim.
So, why don't offer MGLRU a own shrink path to avoid so many check of folio?
And more think, it's nice to assign a anon/file reclaim hook into
anon_vma/address_space?
(Each folio, have their own shrink path, don't try check path if it no
need.)
