I think when you look at patch 05/20 which adds the unreclaimable field
this becomes less like a straight up queue data type.

It feels to me that once you add the "unreclaimable" struct list_head
field to this struct in the next patch, it would be a bit confusing to
rename this to just "list". What the final struct looks like is
actually not really a nice clean simple queue, but 2 lists - one for
EPC pages which are being tracked by the reclaimer, and one for EPC
pages which are not (such as va pages).
