[PATCH mm-unstable v1 2/5] mm/mglru: improve should_run_aging()

From: Kinsey Ho
Date: Wed Feb 14 2024 - 01:06:39 EST


scan_control *sc does not need to be passed into should_run_aging(), as
it provides only the reclaim priority. This can be moved to
get_nr_to_scan().

Refactor should_run_aging() and get_nr_to_scan() to improve code
readability. No functional changes.
