memcg: add inactive_anon_is_low()
The inactive_anon_is_low() is key component of active/inactive anon balancing on reclaim. However current inactive_anon_is_low() function only consider global reclaim. Therefore, we need following ugly scan_global_lru() condition. if (lru == LRU_ACTIVE_ANON && (!scan_global_lru(sc) || inactive_anon_is_low(zone))) { shrink_active_list(nr_to_scan, zone, sc, priority, file); return 0; it cause that memcg reclaim always deactivate pages when shrink_list() is called. To make mem_cgroup_inactive_anon_is_low() improve active/inactive anon balancing of memcgroup.
