How about a #define LRU_STAT_BASE NR_INACTIVE ...

... in order to avoid using NR_INACTIVE in places like this?
(LRU_STAT_BASE is a bad name, I apologize)
Or perhaps a macro lru_stat (it's getting worse...) that yields the zone
stat index corresponding to the lru list type? I think this would
increase readability.
