mm: vmscan: treat pages marked for immediate reclaim as zone congestion
Currently a zone will only be marked congested if the underlying BDI is congested but if dirty pages are spread across zones it is possible that an individual zone is full of dirty pages without being congested. The impact is that zone gets scanned very quickly potentially reclaiming really clean pages. This patch treats pages marked for immediate reclaim as congested for the purposes of marking a zone ZONE_CONGESTED and stalling in wait_iff_congested.
