This reverts commit12a5d39552. Although it is recognized that a finer grained pro-active reclaim is something we need and want the semantic of this implementation is really ambiguous. In a follow up discussion it became clear that there are two essential usecases here. One is to use memory.reclaim to pro-actively reclaim memory and expectation is that the requested and reported amount of memory is uncharged from the memcg. Another usecase focuses on pro-active demotion when the memory is merely shuffled around to demotion targets while the overall charged memory stays unchanged. The current implementation considers demoted pages as reclaimed and that break both usecases. [1] has tried to address the reporting part but there are more issues with that summarized in [2] and follow up emails. Let's revert the nodemask based extension of the memcg pro-active reclaim for now until we settle with a more robust semantic.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
