Subject: [PATCH] mm: fix page relaim comment error

From: Wanpeng Li <liwp@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

Since there are five lists in LRU cache, the array nr in get_scan_count
should be:

nr[0] = anon inactive pages to scan; nr[1] = anon active pages to scan
nr[2] = file inactive pages to scan; nr[3] = file active pages to scan
