OK (either way is fine), but you should still drop the __isolate_lru_page
nonsense and revert it like my patch does.

Ok with me. Magnus: You needed the __isolate_lru_page for some other
purpose. Is that still the case?


It made sense to have it broken out when it was used twice within
vmscan.c, but now when the patch changed a lot and the function is
used only once I guess the best thing is to inline it as Nick
suggested. I will re-add it myself later on when I need it. Thanks.

I'm curious, what do you need it for?
