The reclaim code is similar to RSS memory controller. Scan control is
slightly different since we are targeting different type of pages.
Additionally no mapped pages are touched when scanning for pagecache pages.
RSS memory controller and pagecache controller share common code in reclaim
and hence pagecache controller patches are dependent on RSS memory controller
patch even though the features are independently configurable at compile time.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Here, if page type is mapped or not overlimit, why add it back to active list?
Did shrink_page_list() is called by shrink_inactive_list()?
