Without swap, anonymous pages are not scanned. As such, they should not count when considering force-scanning a small target if there is no swap. Otherwise, targets are not force-scanned even when their effective scan number is zero and the other conditions--kswapd/memcg--apply.I forgot to mention, this patch is a fix for '246e87a memcg: fix get_scan_count() for small targets', which went upstream this merge window. Probably makes sense to merge this one too before the release..?
