Sorry, I'm still puzzled: I thought the unevictable lru was for

with you over the anons (and shm and tmpfs get counted along
with the anons in this context), but wouldn't we still need
an unevictable lru for mlocked shared file pages?

Good point, you are correct. I had forgotten about that
part completely - keeping CONFIG_UNEVICTABLE_LRU may be
a good idea after all.
