From 1dce071e18b7264457d17c0dec4c7e430bfaee7d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shaohua Li Date: Thu, 11 Nov 2010 14:05:17 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] vmscan: avoid setting zone congested if no page dirty nr_dirty and nr_congested are increased only when the page is dirty. So if all pages are clean, both them will be zero. In this case, we should not mark the zone congested.
