Subject: [PATCH 4/8] mm: vmscan: naming fixes: global_reclaim() and sane_reclaim()
Seven years after introducing the global_reclaim() function, I still
have to double take when reading a callsite. I don't know how others
do it, this is a terrible name.
Invert the meaning and rename it to cgroup_reclaim().
[ After all, "global reclaim" is just regular reclaim invoked from the
page allocator. It's reclaim on behalf of a cgroup limit that is a
special case of reclaim, and should be explicit - not the reverse. ]
sane_reclaim() isn't very descriptive either: it tests whether we can
use the regular writeback throttling - available during regular page
reclaim or cgroup2 limit reclaim - or need to use the broken
wait_on_page_writeback() method. Use "writeback_throttling_sane()".
