Subject[PATCH 04/10] vmscan: Synchronous lumpy reclaim should not call congestion_wait()
Date
From: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com>

congestion_wait() mean "waiting queue congestion is cleared". However,
synchronous lumpy reclaim does not need this congestion_wait() as
shrink_page_list(PAGEOUT_IO_SYNC) uses wait_on_page_writeback()
and it provides the necessary waiting.
