[PATCH 2/8] mm: vmscan: simplify memcg vs. global shrinker invocation

From: Johannes Weiner
Date: Wed Nov 04 2015 - 17:26:10 EST


Letting shrink_slab() handle the root_mem_cgroup, and implicitely the
!CONFIG_MEMCG case, allows shrink_zone() to invoke the shrinkers
unconditionally from within the memcg iteration loop.
