1176 * note that the LRU is being scanned too quickly and the

1180 * not marked for immediate reclaim, or the caller does not
1181 * have __GFP_FS (or __GFP_IO if it's simply going to swap,
1182 * not to fs). In this case mark the page for immediate
1183 * reclaim and continue scanning.

1186 * may not have submitted IO yet. And the loop driver might
1187 * enter reclaim, and deadlock if it waits on a page for
1188 * which it is needed to do the write (loop masks off
1189 * __GFP_IO|__GFP_FS for this reason); but more thought

1194 * throttling so we could easily OOM just because too many
