Subject: [RFC PATCH v2] mm: Add nodes= arg to memory.reclaim

The nodes= arg instructs the kernel to only scan the given nodes for
proactive reclaim. For example use cases, consider a 2 tier memory system:

nodes 0,1 -> top tier
nodes 2,3 -> second tier

$ echo "1m nodes=0" > memory.reclaim

This instructs the kernel to attempt to reclaim 1m memory from node 0.
Since node 0 is a top tier node, demotion will be attempted first. This
is useful to direct proactive reclaim to specific nodes that are under
pressure.

$ echo "1m nodes=2,3" > memory.reclaim

This instructs the kernel to attempt to reclaim 1m memory in the second tier,
since this tier of memory has no demotion targets the memory will be
reclaimed.

$ echo "1m nodes=0,1" > memory.reclaim

Instructs the kernel to reclaim memory from the top tier nodes, which can
be desirable according to the userspace policy if there is pressure on
the top tiers. Since these nodes have demotion targets, the kernel will
attempt demotion first.

Since commit 3f1509c57b1b ("Revert "mm/vmscan: never demote for memcg
reclaim""), the proactive reclaim interface memory.reclaim does both
reclaim and demotion. Reclaim and demotion incur different latency costs
to the jobs in the cgroup. Demoted memory would still be addressable
by the userspace at a higher latency, but reclaimed memory would need to
incur a pagefault.

The 'nodes' arg is useful to allow the userspace to control demotion
and reclaim independently according to its policy: if the memory.reclaim
is called on a node with demotion targets, it will attempt demotion first;
if it is called on a node without demotion targets, it will only attempt
reclaim.
