Thank you very much for the review. I sure can in the next version. To
be honest I thought about that and made the parameter nodemask_t
because I thought the call sites would be more readable. I.e. this:

    try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages(memcg, 1, GFP_KERNEL,
MEMCG_RECLAIM_MAY_SWAP,  NODE_MASK_ALL);

Would be more readable than this:

    try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages(memcg, 1, GFP_KERNEL,
MEMCG_RECLAIM_MAY_SWAP,  NULL);

But the tradeoff is that the callers need include/linux/nodemask.h.
But yes I can fix in the next version.
