[PATCH] vm: scan slab in response to highmem scanning
The patch which went in six months or so back which said "only reclaim slab if we're scanning lowmem pagecache" was wrong. I must have been asleep at the time. We do need to scan slab in response to highmem page reclaim as well. Because all the math is based around the total amount of memory in the machine, and we know that if we're performing highmem page reclaim then the lower zones have no free memory.
