Subject: [PATCH] memcg reclaim shouldn't change zone->recent_rotated statics.

Hi

this is a trivial bugfix.
I think this is not serious bug.
but if memcgroup reclaim change zone statics, global reclaim can confusion a bit.


================================================
memcg reclaim shouldn't change zone->recent_rotated statics.
