Subject[patch 1/2] mm: vmscan: fix force-scanning small targets without swap
Date
Without swap, anonymous pages are not scanned.  As such, they should
not count when considering force-scanning a small target if there is
no swap.

Otherwise, targets are not force-scanned even when their effective
scan number is zero and the other conditions--kswapd/memcg--apply.
