Hugh Dickins	63d6c5ad7f	mm: remove try_to_munlock from vmscan ... An unfortunate feature of the Unevictable LRU work was that reclaiming an anonymous page involved an extra scan through the anon_vma: to check that the page is evictable before allocating swap, because the swap could not be freed reliably soon afterwards. Now try_to_free_swap() has replaced remove_exclusive_swap_page(), that's not an issue any more: remove try_to_munlock() call from shrink_page_list(), leaving it to try_to_munmap() to discover if the page is one to be culled to the unevictable list - in which case then try_to_free_swap(). Update unevictable-lru.txt to remove comments on the try_to_munlock() in shrink_page_list(), and shorten some lines over 80 columns.
