Subject: [PATCH -next] mm: vmscan: correct nr_requested tracing in scan_folios

From: Chen Ridong <chenridong@...wei.com>

When enabling vmscan tracing, it is observed that nr_requested is always
4096, which is confusing.

        mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: classzone=3 order=0 nr_requested=4096 ...
        mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: classzone=3 order=0 nr_requested=4096 ...
        mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: classzone=3 order=0 nr_requested=4096 ...
        mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: classzone=3 order=0 nr_requested=4096 ...
        mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: classzone=3 order=0 nr_requested=4096 ...
        mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: classzone=3 order=0 nr_requested=4096 ...
        mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: classzone=3 order=0 nr_requested=4096 ...

This is because it prints MAX_LRU_BATCH, which is meaningless as it's a
constant. To fix this, modify it to print nr_to_scan as isolate_lru_folios
does.
