mm: multi-gen LRU: debugfs interface
Add /sys/kernel/debug/lru_gen for working set estimation and proactive reclaim. These techniques are commonly used to optimize job scheduling (bin packing) in data centers [1][2]. Compared with the page table-based approach and the PFN-based approach, this lruvec-based approach has the following advantages: 1. It offers better choices because it is aware of memcgs, NUMA nodes, shared mappings and unmapped page cache. 2. It is more scalable because it is O(nr_hot_pages), whereas the PFN-based approach is O(nr_total_pages). Add /sys/kernel/debug/lru_gen_full for debugging.
