Subject: [PATCH] mm: deduct the number of pages reclaimed by madvise from workingset

From: Zhaoyang Huang <zhaoyang.huang@...soc.com>

The pages reclaimed by madvise_pageout are made of inactive and dropped from LRU
forcefully, which lead to the coming up refault pages possess a large refault
distance than it should be. These could affect the accuracy of thrashing when
madvise_pageout is used as a common way of memory reclaiming as ANDROID does now.
