From e68ff0c9fb1412e48c1b994dd810d9b0d571b31b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH] Logic added in commit 8cab4754d24a0 ("vmscan: make mapped
 executable pages the first class citizen") was noticeably weakened in commit
 645747462435d84 ("vmscan: detect mapped file pages used only once").

Currently these pages can become "first class citizens" only after second
usage.  After this patch page_check_references() will activate they after
first usage, and executable code gets yet better chance to stay in memory.
