Subject: [PATCH 0/4] mm/damon/paddr: simplify page level access re-check for pageout

The 'pageout' DAMOS action implementation of 'paddr' asks
reclaim_pages() to do page level access check again. But the user can
ask 'paddr' to do the page level access check on its own, using DAMOS
filter of 'young page' type. Meanwhile, 'paddr' is the only user of
reclaim_pages() that asks the page level access check.

Make 'paddr' does the page level access check on its own always, and
simplify reclaim_pages() by removing the page level access check request
handling logic. As a result of the change for reclaim_pages(),
reclaim_folio_list(), which is called by reclaim_pages(), also no more
need to do the page level access check. Simplify the function, too.

SeongJae Park (4):

mm/damon/paddr: do page level access check for pageout DAMOS action on
its own

Subject: [PATCH 1/4] mm/damon/paddr: avoid unnecessary page level access check for pageout DAMOS action

'pageout' DAMOS action implementation of 'paddr' asks reclaim_pages() to
do the page level access check. User could ask DAMOS to do the page
level access check on its own using 'young page' type DAMOS filter. In
the case, pageout DAMOS action unnecessarily asks reclaim_pages() to do
the check again. Ask the page level access check only if the scheme is
not having the filter.

Subject: [PATCH 2/4] mm/damon/paddr: do page level access check for pageout DAMOS action on its own

'pageout' DAMOS action implementation of 'paddr' DAMON operations set
asks reclaim_pages() to do page level access check if the user is not
asking DAMOS to do that on its own. Simplify the logic by making the
check always be done by 'paddr'.

Subject: [PATCH 3/4] mm/vmscan: remove ignore_references argument of reclaim_pages()

All reclaim_pages() callers are setting 'ignore_references' parameter
'true'. In other words, the parameter is not really being used. Remove
the argument to make it simple.
