The if at the end looks like it should have been a switch maybe?

switch(scan_balance) {
case SCAN_EQUAL:
/* Scan relative to size */
break;
case SCAN_FRACT:
/* Scan proportional to swappiness */
scan = div64_u64(scan * fraction[file], denominator);
case SCAN_FILE:
case SCAN_ANON:
/* Scan only file or only anon LRU */
if ((scan_balance == SCAN_FILE) != file)
scan = 0;
break;
default:
/* Look ma, no brain */
BUG();
}
