X-Git-Tag: v2.6.27-rc1~374 X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c9b0ed51483cc2fc42bb801b6675c4231b0e4634;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git memcg: helper function for relcaim from shmem. A new call, mem_cgroup_shrink_usage() is added for shmem handling and relacing non-standard usage of mem_cgroup_charge/uncharge. Now, shmem calls mem_cgroup_charge() just for reclaim some pages from mem_cgroup. In general, shmem is used by some process group and not for global resource (like file caches). So, it's reasonable to reclaim pages from mem_cgroup where shmem is mainly used.
