Subject[PATCH] mmotm: memcgvmscan-do-not-break-out-targeted-reclaim-without-reclaimed-pages.patch fix
Ying has noticed me (via private email) that the patch is bogus because
the break out condition is incorrect. She said she would post a fix
but she's been probably too busy. If she doesn't oppose, could you add
the follow up fix, please?

I am really sorry about this mess.

Subject: [PATCH] mmotm:
memcgvmscan-do-not-break-out-targeted-reclaim-without-reclaimed-pages.patch
fix

We should break out of the hierarchy loop only if nr_reclaimed exceeded
nr_to_reclaim and not vice-versa. This patch fixes the condition.
