[PATCH] shrink_all_memory() fixes
- Off-by-one in balance_pgdat means that we're not scanning the zones all the way down to priority=0. - Always set zone->temp_priority in shrink_caches(). I'm not sure why I had the `if (zone->free_pages < zone->pages_high)' test in there, but it's preventing us from setting ->prev_priority correctly on the try_to_free_pages() path. - Set zone->prev_priority to the current priority if it's currently a "lower" priority. This allows us to build up the pressure on mapped pages on the first scanning pass rather than only on successive passes.
