Subject: [PATCH v16 02/13] vmstat: add vmstat_idle function
Date:   Fri,  3 Nov 2017 13:04:41 -0400
Message-Id: <1509728692-10460-3-git-send-email-cmetcalf@mellanox.com>
In-Reply-To: <1509728692-10460-1-git-send-email-cmetcalf@mellanox.com>
References: <1509728692-10460-1-git-send-email-cmetcalf@mellanox.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

This function checks to see if a vmstat worker is not running,
and the vmstat diffs don't require an update.  The function is
called from the task-isolation code to see if we need to
actually do some work to quiet vmstat.
