Subject: [PATCH 4.16 31/72] z3fold: fix reclaim lock-ups

4.16-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vitaly Wool <vitalywool@...il.com>

commit 6098d7e136692f9c6e23ae362c62ec822343e4d5 upstream.

Do not try to optimize in-page object layout while the page is under
reclaim.  This fixes lock-ups on reclaim and improves reclaim
performance at the same time.

[akpm@...ux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes]
