I think we should include [1/2] as well along with this patch, as this patch
is using list_lru_count(), which can return incorrect count if [1/2] is 
not included.

Also, all the previous patches submitted for fixing this issue must be 
dropped i.e,
mm/list_lru.c: use cond_resched_lock() for nlru->lock must be dropped.
