mainlining shenanigans

Adric Blake has noticed[1] the following warning: WARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 175 at mm/vmscan.c:245 set_task_reclaim_state+0x1e/0x40 [...] Call Trace: mem_cgroup_shrink_node+0x9b/0x1d0 mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim+0x10c/0x3a0 balance_pgdat+0x276/0x540 kswapd+0x200/0x3f0 ? wait_woken+0x80/0x80 kthread+0xfd/0x130 ? balance_pgdat+0x540/0x540 ? kthread_park+0x80/0x80 ret_from_fork+0x35/0x40 ---[ end trace 727343df67b2398a ]--- which tells us that soft limit reclaim is about to overwrite the reclaim_state configured up in the call chain (kswapd in this case but the direct reclaim is equally possible). This means that reclaim stats would get misleading once the soft reclaim returns and another reclaim is done. Fix the warning by dropping set_task_reclaim_state from the soft reclaim which is always called with reclaim_state set up.

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.
