How about:

Now that workingset detection is implemented for anonymous LRU, we don't need
large inactive list to allow detecting frequently accessed pages before they are
reclaimed, anymore. This effectively reverts the temporary measure put in by
commit "mm/vmscan: make active/inactive ratio as 1:1 for anon lru".

Thanks!
I still hope Matthew can review updated patch 4/6 (I'm not really familiar with
proper xarray handling), and Johannes patch 5/6.

And then we just need a nice Documentation file describing how reclaim really
works after all the recent changes :)
